In Norse mythology, 'Sága' or 'Saga' is a goddess of the Æsir and maybe another name for Frigg. The name could mean "seeing one" or (less probable) "announcer". She is mentioned in the ''Grímnismál''.

:Sökkvabekkr heitir inn fjórði, :en þar svalar knegu :unnir yfir glymja; :þar þau Óðinn ok Sága :drekka um alla daga :glöð ór gullnum kerum. ''Grímnismál'' 7, Guðni Jónsson's edition

:Sökkvabekk the fourth is named:oe’r which:the gelid waves resound;:Odin and Saga there,:joyful each day,:from golden beakers quaff. ''Grímnismál'' 7, Thorpe's translation

''Sökkvabekkr'' means "hall of sunk benches".
