First off, it couldn't be the Dwarven name for Wyrd, seeing as how the dwarves would speak a Nordic-based language (for instance: Andvari, a not uncommon name amongst dwarves is also the name of a dwarf in Norse legends)
Second, why would the writers of myth have a city named after a group of people who are named after a person or god, who's (the god/person) name is an allusion to a city in Celtic myths?
