So, with the exception of Monday and Sunday, almost all of the days are named after Norse/Saxon gods: Tuesday – Týr, Wednesday – Odin (Woden is the Saxon spelling), Thursday – Thor, Friday – Frigga, Freyr or Freyja depending on who you ask.
And then you have Saturday, which was named after Saturn. A Roman god. A Roman god who doesn’t even play that big a role in the mythology. A Roman god who *ate his own children*, which even by Greek/Roman god standards isn’t particularly nice. The bar for not being an utter asshole in Roman mythology is literally on the ground, and Saturn somehow still manged to dig under it. Honestly, I’m not even sure whether he can be classified as a god, seeing as he’s the Roman version of Kronos, who was a Titan, not a god. *And* he also has a planet in the Solar System named after him.
If you look at the main gods in the Norse pantheon, the only one that isn’t named in a day of the week is Loki. And, other than the Ragnarok myth (which was *probably* a Christian bastardisation of the original myths, akin to a 13th century fanfiction), Loki… isn’t really that bad. Most of the time he’s just an annoying little shit with an… *unusual* taste in bed-partners. Certainly, he never tried to eat his kids (honestly, *his* kids were more likely to eat *him*).
So yeah. Rename Saturday after Loki please. They deserve it after all the shitty adaptations they’ve been through.
