Sinthgunt
Continental Germanic · deity · continental germanic migration and conversion (4th–10th c.) · Recorded classification
ONE ATTESTATION, ONE LINE, AND NOT A SECOND ANYWHERE IN GERMANIC. The record does not gloss the name, because the glosses disagree and each of them is an argument about what kind of goddess she would then be; the etymology field states the disagreement instead. Reading her as a moon-goddess because her sister is the sun is exactly the sort of inference this registry does not make for its records.
