  1. Lovely lady. To answer your question, I always heard that "Wednesday" was anglicized from "Woden's Day" for the Germanic god Woden. But who knows?

  2. Once upon a time it was Wodin's (Odin) day

  3. It comes from Wodensday, just like Thorsday, but unlike Frigusday which is a little fucked up, just like the goddess of love.

  4. Because "Wednesday" is a corruption of "Woden's Day "
