Jormungandr is just another name for Midgardsormr.jormungander (jormungand) is the name of the serpent that surrounds midgard. He is the son of loki Skywalker (the trickster), and brother to fenris (fenrir) and hel. Thor kills him at Ragnarok, but in his death throes he vomits venom over thor killing him. Love all the Norse mythology in this game.

I'm not saying you're wrong but I've never seen that in any translation. He is sometimes referred to as the Midgard Serpent though, so maybe sormr=serpent.
Edit: found it on wikipedia Old Norse:Miðgarðsormr
It should be noted that referring to Jormungander as Midgardsormr is kinda like referring to Odin as All Father or Thor as The charioteer. They are kind of nick names.

Funnily enough; I didn't know that it was called Jormungand until I decided to look up the origin of the name after seeing it in a game. Any time it was mentioned during school or in story books, it was just called "Midgardsormen" (Norwegian for "The Midgard serpent")I'm not saying you're wrong but I've never seen that in any translation.
