I do know that the letter "j" being pronounced as a "y" is very Norse. It is the same with the letter "I". Such as the words Jormungandr (sounds like yourmungandar), Mjollnir (sounds like myollnir), Einherjar ( sounds like Einheryar), and Jotunheim (sounds like yotinheim). By the looks of it and how it sounds, it seems very Norse to me..... And it looks like I may be correct...... Look up Dijk artjem. The first is part of a name and the second part is a word. They are Germanic/Norse.
