Aeldfrith, apparently many scholars conflate Frigg and Freya due to considerable “thematic” overlap. Also, in Old High German Frigg is Frija, very similar to Freya. Friday is named after Frigg, but the Freya's similarity to Frija may well account for her inclusion as a source for Friday. Comparing English, French & German: Monday, Montag, lundi = moon day. Tuesday, mardi, Dienstag = Tiw, god of war equivalent to Mars. Wednesday, mercredi, Mittwoch, Woden, Thursday, jeudi, Donnerstag, Thunor, god of thunder, equivalent to Jupiter. Friday, vendredi, Freitag, Frigg, (loosely) goddess of love, equivalent to Venus. Saturday, samedi, Samstag/Sonnabend, Saturn's day. The alternative German = Sun Eve. Sunday, dimanche, Sonntag, Sun's day, or lords day for the French.
