A fun and interesting fact about Fridays is that the name "Friday" originates from Old English "Frīgedæg," which means "Day of Frigg." Frigg, or Frigga, was a Norse goddess associated with love, beauty, and fertility. This is similar with the Roman goddess Venus, who is also associated with love and beauty, and after whom Friday is named in Latin-based languages (e.g., "viernes" in Spanish and "vendredi" in French).
