It was named after the Norse god Tyr, Tiwesdæg, meaning, Tyr's day. He was associated with single combat and pledges. Tuesday in Latin, is Dies Martis. Meaning, day of Mars, the Roman war god.

The "Norse one" was Tyr. The days of the week come from Norse mythology and German. Tiw was the German god of Justice. Right now I can't think of the name of the Norse one.
