From Book of Lost Tales II, chapter VI:

"It is then said, somewhat inconsequentially (though the matter is in itself of much interest, and recurs nowhere else), that Eriol told the fairies of Woden, žunor, Tķw, etc. (these being the Old English names of the Germanic gods who in Old Scandinavian form are Ošinn, žórr, Tyr), and they identified them with Manweg, Tulkas, and a third whose name is illegible but is not like that of any of the great Valar" [I guess Fionwe could be equated with Tķw-Tiwaz-Tyr for a couple of reasons -- Sharkū].
