Pronunciation: /ˈheɪˌnɪɹ/

Etymology: Borrowed from Old Norse Hǿnir.
Senses: examples: text: The Æsir send in exchange Hœnir, an obscure figure in Old Norse mythology, and perhaps understandably so, since the Vanir soon discover that Hœnir, though extremely good-looking, is like a ventriloquist's dummy.
ref: 2008, Heather O'Donoghue, From Asgard to Valhalla, Bloomsbury Publishing, unnumbered page:
text: 2014, Dagulf Loptson, Playing With Fire, Lulu, EPUB Edition, unnumbered page,
Unfortunately, little information remains about the Æsir god Hœnir. In Gylfaginning, Snorri tells us that Hœnir was given as a hostage to the Vanir in exchange for Njörðr in a pledge of truce.
text: Rather curiously, it is Hœnir who is said to have imbued the lifeless wood with óðr ('frenzy', 'passion'), rather than Odin, who derives his own name from the quality.
