I like the various Anglo-Saxon and Norse terms better, because they sound right for the Heortlings. Deva, to my ear, sounds more like a Vithelan or possibly Lunar term. On the other hand, if it's a game term rather than a Gloranthan term -- the HW rules say "Deva," the Heortling Godi says "vetter," the Lunar priest says "deva," the Vithelan says "diva," then that's just fine....

That's what I've used too. (only translated to Finnish)
So what is the Finnish word for godlings?
