Nabbi

The dwarves Nabbi and Dain were the creatores of the golden boar Hildisvini ("Battle-Swine"), which was (maybe) the same as the golden boar Gullinbusti.

According to the Prose Edda Gullinbursti was made by the dwarves Brokk and Sindri.

"Wild dreams, methinks, | are thine when thou sayest
My lover is with me | on the way of the slain;
There shines the boar | with bristles of gold,
Hildisvini, | he who was made
By Dain and Nabbi, | the cunning dwarfs."

(Poetic Edda: Hyndluljoth)
