Word Origin & History
Freya
goddess of love and beauty in Norse mythology, O.N. Freyja, related to O.E. frea "lord," O.S. frua, M.Du. vrouwe "woman, wife," Ger. Frau; see Frigg).
"Frigga is usually considered the goddess of married love; Freya, the goddess of love, the northern Venus. Actually, Frigga is of the Aesir family of Scandinavian myth; Freya, of the Vanir family; the two lines of belief merged, and the two goddesses are sometimes fused, and sometimes confused." [Shipley]
