"etymology_text": "From Old Norse Stafangr, a compound of stafr + angr. Akin to Stavang. The meanings of the composite words are straightforward, but what exactly they refer to is unclear.\n* angr (“bay, fjord”), in reference to a body of water. This could be Breiavatnet, Byfjorden, Hillevågsvatnet, Vågen , or Østervåg. Norwegian etymologist Inge Særheim sees Vågen, the inlet atop the mouth of which stands the Stavanger Cathedral, as the most likely candidate.\n* stafr (“staff”), from Proto-Germanic *stabaz, relating to the straight and unbending shape of a landform. This could refer to the out-jutting headland on the east lip of Vågen, a steep drop down into (the shore of) a body of water, or simply the unbending shape of the body of water in question. Byfjorden, Hillevågsvatnet, and Vågen all have straightish shapes.",
