Saturday is still a remnant of the Roman God Saturn, and thus not named after a Norse God.

Sunday is Sunna's day, the Goddess (female unlike most cultures which depict the Sun as a male entity) of the Sun.

Monday is named after Máni, the Norse God (note that he's male) of the Moon, and brother to Sunna.

Tuesday is Tyr's Day, the God of War.

Wednesday is Oden's (Or Wodan's, which is closer to how you actually pronounce Oden) Day, the Chief God of Norse mythology. He is associated with a labyrinthine assortment of abstracts, including fury, wisdom, poetry, victory and The Hunt.

Thursday is Thor's Day, the God of the Storm.

Friday is Freya's Day, the Godess of Fertility and Life.
