Delling

Delling ("The Day Spring"?) or Dogling ("Son of the Dew") was an elf or dwarf, husband of the goddess of the night (Nott) and father of the day (Dagr).

"The father of day | is Delling called,
And the night was begotten by Nor;
Full moon and old | by the gods were fashioned,
To tell the time for men."
(Vafthruthnismol)
