"Gymir" meaning in Old Norse

See Gymir in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

Forms: Gymis [genitive], strong [table-tags], Gymir [indefinite, nominative], Gymi [accusative, indefinite], Gymi [dative, indefinite], Gymis [genitive, indefinite]
Etymology: Uncertain, probably formed from Proto-Norse *gumijaʀ or late Proto-Norse *gymeʀ. Some relate it to Old Norse gumi, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰmṓ (“earth”) + Proto-Germanic *-jaz (“agent suffix”). Others relate it to Old Norse gamall or Icelandic góa. Compare Old Norse gymbr and Icelandic gimbill, gimbur and Swedish gumse. Possibly ultimately derived from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰéyōm 'winter'. Alternatively from Old Norse gymir 'sea'.
