Olaf

Olaf or Olav is a Scandinavian, German, and Dutch given name. It seems to derive from a Proto-Norse name meaning "ancestor's heirloom". In Norway, Olav and Olaf are equally common, but Olav is traditionally used when referring to members of royalty. In the works of Harry Turtledove, Olaf may refer to:


 * Olaf (Drang von Osten), a Norwegian soldier in "Drang von Osten."
 * Olaf (The House of Daniel), a member of the Medford Nuggets and minor character in The House of Daniel.
