Interesting thing about the survival of the word 'Hengist', the nasal N before a G, which is now softened before the front vowel (G > Y), makes hen-yist palatalise into hendgist, or henchest.
His name, and the word itself, survives in the word 'henchman', from hengestmann, a strong, stable servant who tended to the stallions.
The Scandinavian cognates derive from Old Norse hestr, from a variant *hanhistaz (causing the vowel cluster to collapse between nh), rather than *hangistaz.
Germanic has many names for the sacred horse, no less horse (and the name of Horsa) itself, from Germanic *hrussą (whence the name Ross), which shares its root with Latin currus (chariot), and cursus (course). It was very likely that *ehwaz (Old English eoh, cognate with Latin equus, from Indo-European *héḱwos), which was used for the runestaff's name, was deemed too holy and too taboo and thus replaced by hrussą, generally meaning the fast one.

Ēosturmōnaþ
The Full Moon tonight, at sundown, marks the traditional start of summer & the first night of what pre-christian Scandinavians called Sigurblót (“Victory Sacrifice,”) believed to have been the most important of the three major blots of the year.
To the Anglish, Frisians, & Franks the celebration was called Eostre.
“Odin established the same law in his land that had been in force in Asaland… On winter day (first day of winter) there should be blot for a good year, & in the middle of winter for a good crop; & the third blot should be on summer day, a Victory-blot.”
(The Ynglinga Saga, ch. 8, c. 1225 CE)
"As long as Heathenry lasted he was held three blots: one on Winter Nights, a second at mid-Winter, & the third at the start of summer."
(Saga of St. Olav, ch 117, c. 1180 CE)
“In Sweden there was an age-old custom whilst they were still heathen that there should be a blot in Upsala during Goa (moon.) Then they would blot for peace & victory for their king. People from all over Sweden were to resort there.”
(Heimskringla Olaf’s Saga Helga 77)
"Eostur-Monath, which we now interpret as the Easter month, comes from [the goddess] Eostre. We now call the Paschal season by her name, thereby referring to the joys of the new festival with the ancient designation.”
(Bede, De Temporum Ratione, c. 725 CE)
