Vsp. St. 18: "Well of Weird" and other possessives

[jgnewman]

I'm curious as to whether you have a philosophy on translating O.N. genitives to English possessives. At face value, I would think you might want to use 's instead of of whenever possible as it seems closer to the O.N. So in this case Weird's Well instead of Well of Weird. I also suspect (but haven't looked into it) that heavy reliance on of comes from French influence.

Edit:
Related, it occurs to me that Slainfather, Slain-Father, and Slain Father all work equally well for Valfǫðr in English. You probably don't need to use Father of the Slain if you'd prefer a construction closer to the O.N.

Likewise, the Horn of Yell from st. 46 would sound way better as the Yellhorn IMO. There are likely others.
