Fredag means Freja's day. Fre as in short for Freja, which is this norse goddess:

Friday is not far from that, but some of the other days must mean something else in English. Wednesday, for example. "Wednes"? What the hell does that mean? In Danish, that day is "Onsdag", which is short for "Odin's day".

I guess in old english Odin was known as Wodan and in German it was Wodanaz.
