Maybe  Mjolnir  if that is available...

It's a mouthful, but powerful
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

How about .475 Gungnir, the name Odin's spear?

Personally I never liked the looks of severely rebated rims, even if people say they function well. The .284 Winchester looks good with the rim only 0.028" smaller than the head, and the .450 Bushmaster based on it seems to work well enough. The .458 SOCOM with it's rim rebated 0.068" apparently works too, but there must be a limit where it's just too much of a difference in diameter. Or is it just a case of me judging a book by its cover?

Does it have to be a Norse name?

Hog Hammer would be a great name if Remington wasn't already using it.

OK, you guys make my shoulder hurt just reading about these cannons... I've been working the last two years to reduce the recoil of an AR9mm carbine with a 145 power factor  :)

an older friend that just passed away built dangerous game rifles for taking the big 5 in Africa.... 375/404 Jeffrey improved... he got 70 loaded rounds per pound of powder (100 grain charge)... I shot one... it laid the grass down in front of me for about 10yds... I'm sure I flinched it a little, but the cinder block exploded with the Barnes solid

Any progess?

I saw this online and it reminded me of this thread. ODIN - Organization of Democratic Intelligence Networks. It's a spy agency from the Archer TV series.
