Hermóðsdögg or Hermóðardögg (kvikasilfur)

Mercury is the only metal for which the alchemical planetary name became the common name. The god Mercury was the quick messenger of the gods, hence the synonym "quicksilver". The Nordic equivalent is Hermóður, the messengergod nick-named "hinn hvati" (the speedy one).  Because mercury looks like dewdrops, I decided to call the element "Hermóðsdögg".
