@malte Yeah, that's a common way to look at it. When it comes to theology, I've only known Pagans to absolutely agree on three things: the Earth deserves respect, the Moon is beautiful, and Pagans can't agree on anything, lol

There is no such thing as a "correct" spelling for a pagan god's name. -
There is no such thing as a "correct" spelling for a pagan god's name.There is no such thing as a "correct" spelling for a pagan god's name. Some spellings have become convention when referring to a localized deity in history or a particular tradition.
For example, one might spell 'FREYJA' when referring to a specifically Anglo Saxon practice, vs. 'FREYA' for a more general practice. A Hellenic Pagan might spell 'HEKATE' and a Wiccan will spell 'HECATE.' But I think everyone agrees that we are talking about the same goddesses. Or at least, any differences are so small that they are negligible.
Our gods existed before written language, and people called out to them way before they wrote down what their names might look like in the phonetic alphabet they were using at the time. Whatever looks right to you is right.
