Sigyn was, in Norse mythology, the wife of Loki, who bore him two sons, Narvi and Váli.

When Loki was bound to three rocks for the murder of Baldr, Sigyn did not abandon him. Instead, she collected the poison that dripped down from the snake above him in a bowl. When the bowl was full, Sigyn left to empty it and the poison dripped into Loki's eyes.

Her name according to some sources means: "Victory giver." Another spelling of Sigyn is "Sigunn."
