Bragi presents heiti, that is, alternative poetic names for gods, animals, weapons, and body parts. Unlike kennings, heiti are simple synonyms that the skald may use for variation and to fill out the metre.
Heiti eru önnur nöfn hluta en þau er algeng eru í máli manna. Óðinn heitir Yggr, Hárr, Gangleri. Þórr heitir Ökuþórr, Hlórriði, Vingnir. Þessir eru heiti ok má skáldr nota þá í stað almennra nafna.
Heiti are alternative names for things that differ from those common in everyday speech. Odin is called Yggr, Harr, Gangleri. Thor is called Okuthor, Hlorriði, Vingner. These are heiti and the skald may use them in place of common names.
Hestar heita mar, jór, folr, ross. Konur heita mær, brúðr, kona, kvinna. Vápn heita hjörr, mækir, brynja. Líkamshlutar heita gimbr, hönd, fótr. Þessir eru dæmi um heiti er skaldar nota.
Horses are called mar, jor, folr, ross. Women are called mær, brud, kona, kvinna. Weapons are called hjorr, mækir, brynja. Body parts are called gimbr, hond, fot. These are examples of heiti that skalds use.
