different between southron vs southren

southron

English

Etymology

Likely from a Northumbrian alteration of earlier Old English suþern, suþærn. The switch from -ern to -ron is likely due to the influence of Old Norse rann (place, house, home) on Old English ærn (home, place). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)
