Statistics count the spelling “Jofrid” as recorded by the publisher. When a spelling has several independent origins, the counts are not split between them. Counts measure births. Gaps are years without a published value, not zeros.
Rates per million are unavailable for this series because no compatible denominator has been imported.

JOFRID— “fair horse”
Hengst seems to have been used for the male, horse for the female; but _jor_ in the North, _ehu_ in Old German, _ehvus_ in Gothic, meant both horse and mare; and this _jor_, or sometimes only the _jo_, is not uncommon in Norsk names, as Jogeir, Jofred, Jogrim, Jostein, or flower of chivalry, Johar or Joar, horse warrior, Joketyll, or Jokell. The women were, Jora, Jodis, Jofrid, Joreid, Jorunna, all, be it remembered, being pronounced as with a _y_.
