Thoughts sent on a video http://youtu.be/ zYngzsYGD48 which indicates the similarity between Nordic Freya and Vedic Prajapati:

From Prajaapati, Pati means lord or husband, so prajaa-pati is the husband of prajaa (prajaa is feminine as it has a long aa at the end of the word and it is clearly noted as a feminine word in the Sanskrit dictionary).
Four entries in Monnier williams sanskrit dictionary for prajaa:
-f. (ifc. f. {A} ; cf. {pra-ja} above) procreation , propagation , birth RV. AV.
-offspring , children , family , race , posterity , descendants , aftergrowth (of plants) RV.
-a creature , animal , man , mankind
-seed , semen VS. (cf.{-niSeka})
[RV indicates source is rigveda and AV indicates source is atharva veda]
[niSeka means to conceive, or the act of releasing the semen]
Prajaa breaks down to the roots of PRA -preposition meaning before, in front of, original and JA -born, birthing
9example of use jalaja is waterborn jala is water and ja is born from so it is a name of the lotus)
Freya (also written as Frejya) is a fertility goddess often connected to Venus. Her connection to the wife of the pro-creator (pra-ja) is clear.
