I believe Jotunheimen (which means "the Jotun Home" or alternatively "the Jotun Area") was given that name long after the Jotuns were no longer believed in. It was not a Viking name, but one given to those mountains by Weejuns during the Romantic era, or whatever you call that era in Sassenach.RavenMichael O'Neill
The Norwegian word is "jotun".
Any relation to Jotunheim? Whassat?
