Ím

The Old Norse name Ím has been translated as 'dust' (compare with Norw. īm 'smell', Far. ím 'soot [on a kettle]'; also Icel. ima 'heat', Swed. imme 'steam').^[2]

According to the stanza 5 of the poem Vafthrudnismal from the Poetic Edda:

"Then Odin went to try the wisdom

of the all-wise giant [Vafthrudnir];

to the hall he came which Im's father owned;

Odin went inside."

— Larrington trans.

Ím is also mentioned in a list of giants in the Skaldskaparmal section of the Prose Edda by Snorri Sturluson.
