Note that each rune may be referred to differently
in different texts. One reason is that some books prefer to use
the traditional meanings as the names/titles
of the runes (as we do here). Other books refer to runes using
the Old English name, their Old (High) German names,
or their modern English letter equivalent. There are also other
sets of symbols that are associated with runes. These are more
difficult to represent electronically because they do not all correspond
to standard alpha-numeric characters. More about the runes as
listed here.
Other terms used to refer to this rune
are mentioned below:
The sixth rune in the series listed on the left is Initiation (Perth
or Perthro).
The name of this rune in English is "peord.
It is associated with the modern
English character "p".
The Germanic name of this rune is "perp", which is
sometimes written with accents not used in the standard English
character
set so textbooks in English may call this rune simply perth.
