[edit]Etymology
[edit]Learned borrowing from Old High German Wōdan, from Proto-Germanic *Wōdanaz. Cognate with Old English and Old Saxon Woden, German Wotan, and Old Norse Óðinn. The native Dutch Woen is rare (and not inherited) as a simplex, but was preserved through inheritance in compounds, such as woensdag and toponyms like Woensdrecht.
