    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")
