The Authentic Orthography
Archery, Hunting, Skiing · Glory, splendor
Why ullr.com is the correct form
ᚢᛚᛚᚱ
The name in its original Younger Futhark form. ᚢᛚᛚᚱ → Ullr. ᚢ (úr) writes the rounded back vowels /u, o, ø, ǫ, y/ and /w/ · ᛚ (lögr) writes /l/ · ᚱ (reið) writes /r/ · The spelling ullr is a normalized phonetic reconstruction; Younger Futhark does not distinguish voiced/voiceless stops or separate short and long vowels
ULLR
Stripped of its identity, the name was reduced to plain Latin letters. The original orthography — stress, length, breathing — was erased by systems that only understand A-Z.
Ullr
The Unicode restoration recovers what ASCII destroyed. This is philological accuracy — not decoration. The domain encodes to Punycode, but the browser displays the truth.
ullr.com → ullr.com
The non-ASCII characters in Ullr are encoded while the ASCII remains visible. To the DNS, it is Punycode. To humanity, it is Ullr.

Why Ullr is classified as Tier-2 Basic
The Old Norse form ᚢᛚᛚᚱ preserves neither stress nor length in this Unicode restoration. This makes it a single-tier Tier-2 Basic name — still a scholarly step above plain ASCII, but without the distinctive phonetic features that define higher tiers.
