In Norse mythology, Gna is one of the three handmaids of Frigg, together with Fulla and Hlin.

She is the one who takes care of Frigg's matters around the world. Probably for this reason she owns a horse called Hofvarpnir, who is able to move through air and water.

She is the fourtheen goddess described by Snorri Sturlusson.
