Actually, I'd say English speakers would be wringing their hands at your proclamations right now. You're spouting complete nonsense now.

1.) You've announced that jotuns derive their name from Jotunheim by suggesting that jotun is a demonym. As I stated in my previous post, Jotunheim derives its designation from the word, "jotun". It's right there in the name itself: "Jotun home". 2.) You've announced that jotuns are an ethnic group in claiming that jotun is an ethonym. They are not. They are essentially a race of animal (albeit fictional), eg. cats, dogs, humans, ogres, trolls.

And stop using straw man arguments to support your position. You've obliterated your own argument far more effectively that I ever could. Research these instead: Vampires, ogres, trolls, jotuns, elves. You'll find they're mostly presented as common nouns except in cicumstances where someone got it wrong.
