More than 200 names and counting: Odin.
I will tell you my names: I am Grim, I am Gangleri; I am Raider and Helm-wearer, I am the Pleasing One and the Third; I am Þuðr and Uðr; I am Death-blinder and the High One; I am Saðr and Changer and Truth-finder; I am Glad-of-War and Spear-thruster; I am One-eyed, Flame-eyed, Worker of Evil; I am Fjölnir and Grímnir, the Masked One, I am Maddener and Much-Wise; I am Deep Hood and I am Long Beard; I am Sigföðr and Hnikuðr; I am Allfather; I am Atriðr and the Burden God. I have never been called by one name alone since first among men I fared.
Yggdrasil. The Terrifier’s (Odin’s) Steed. The World-Ash. An old and gnarly massive ash on which the All Father rode for nine days to bring us down the runes. His eye, the well of Urth, the structure of the multiverse, the meeting place of the Aesir.
