What did your ancestors call the first month of the year? I do not remember if Old Norse/Icelandic changes months on a new or full moon. and I am not capable of putting the propper accents on tonight. Here are some possibilities. January: Old English/Anglosaxon - {AE}fterra Gola (After Yule) or giul, Old Norse Morsugur (Suet Sucker), Old Norse Lunar Jol (1st part) Thori (After ?New? or ?Full?), Old High German Harti-manod or Harte monat (month of Severe Frost), Poetic German Hartung (Severeness) , Carolingian Eis-mond (Ice month) Schnee-mond (Snow month), Poetic Dutch Iouwmaand (Tanning month), West Frisian Foarmoanne (Fore Month), Icelandic - Hrutmana{dth}ur, Icelandic Lunar Morsugar before (new/Full moon), Thori after (New?/Full? moon), American Asatru, Wolf moon or Snowmoon.
