Giant, father of Nótt in Norse mythology
the father of Nótt

Narfi (Old Norse: ), also Nörfi (O. N.: Nǫrfi ), Nari or Nörr (O. N.: Nǫrr ), is a jötunn in Norse mythology, and the father of Nótt, the personified night.

The Old Norse name Nǫrr has been related to the Old Saxon narouua ('night'), a name which occurs in the verse narouua naht an skion of the fragmentary Genesis poem. In adjectival form, the Old Norse nǫrr means 'narrow', and the name Nar(f)i may have shared the same meaning. Thus, the jötunn's name, as first suggested by Adolf Noreen, may be a synonym for "night" or, perhaps more likely, an adjective related to Old English nearwe, "narrow", meaning "closed in" and thus "oppressive". Snorri Sturluson cites Narfi as an alternative form of the name of the jötunn Nörfi, and the variants Nör and Nörvi also appear in Norse poetry.

Various scholars have argued that Snorri based his genealogy of Nótt on classical models. They relate Narfi to Erebus, which would make nipt Nera, used in "Helgakviða Hundingsbana I" for a Norn who comes in the night, an appellation derived from the Parcae, who were Erebus' daughters.

In "A Great Man's Return", a song on their album Valdr Galga, the Swedish viking metal band Thyrfing refer to "Norve's starfilled sky". In J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings Part One, The Fellowship of the Ring, the dwarf maker of the Doors of Durin signed them "Narvi"; in drafts, Tolkien spelt the name Narfi as in the Prose Edda. In a season 13 episode of Supernatural, Narfi captures and sells the archangel Gabriel to Asmodeus.
