Looks cool, but to German speakers that name is rather strange (Eiter = pus) ;)

In North Germanic languages it's supposed to have some poisonous connotation. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eitr

QuoteThe word eitr exists in most North Germanic languages (all derived from the Old Norse language) in Icelandic/Faroese eitur, in Danish edder, in Swedish etter. Cognates also exist in Dutch etter (pus), in German Eiter (pus), in Old Saxon ĕttar, in Old English ăttor. The word is broadly translated: poisonous, evil, bad, angry, sinister etc.

The word is used in common Scandinavian folklore as a synonym for snake venom.
