Norse myth is full of giants (jötnar): Ymir, Thrym, Skrymir, Surtr. Their names are short and booming, and D&D's frost and fire giants borrow that sound.
D&D ranks giants in an ordning: storm giants at the top, then cloud, fire, frost, stone and hill. Each result is tagged with a type you can use or ignore.
