The Vikings primarily spoke Old Norse and used the runic alphabet to write.

J.R.R. Tolkien was influenced by Norse mythology in a lot of ways. One very small influence was that some of his character names come from Norse myths. For example, Durin (an ancestral leaders of Tolkien's dwarves) and Gandalf are the names of mythical Norse dwarves.
