Robinson Crusoe
[edit]I thought Friday (In Robinson Crusoe) was a native who escaped from cannibals. Are you sure he was a cannibal himself? --BozMo|talk 15:34, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC)
- Yup, he was a cannibal who was captured by and escaped from other cannibals. AxelBoldt 20:06, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Can't make up its mind
[edit]This article cannot make up its mind as to whom, Friday derives its name. Frige (though sharing many attributes with the Norse Goddess Freyja, is actually the Anglo-Saxon version of Frigga (or Frigg), who was Queen of the Norse pantheon. I have changed a bit so hopefully it sounds better. I still think it needs work though...and possibly more research! If it means anything, I would say that in the UK the name is indeed from Frige, and not Freo (who is the Anglo-Saxon Freyja really!) whereas the other Germanic nations do indeed name it after Freyja.

The picture is of Idunn, not Frige
[edit]The picture used for this article is Idunn, which is incorrect if the picture is meant to be of Frige (Frigg).
