Grete is a name and a term was derived from the adjective “great”. Back in the 1500’s, Grete was a very popular name in Iceland and countries of Scandinavia. Currently it is not very popular and is mispronounced 98% of the time. As I’m sure most of you just pronounced it in your head as either “Greet, Gretie, Grate" or maybe even just “Greg”, it is pronounced the same as Greta.
