CLDR has only data for fy (Western Frisian) and frr (Northern Frisian):

$ grep Frisian en.xml 
                        <language type="frr">Northern Frisian</language>
                        <language type="frs">Eastern Frisian</language>
                        <language type="fy">Western Frisian</language>
                        <language type="stq">Saterland Frisian</language>

$ 

The weekday names in the glibc fy_NL locale agree with "Western Frisian" in
CLDR (Apart from capitalization of the first letter).

The weekday names in the glibc fy_DE locale are different and do *not* agree
with the "Northern Frisian" in CLDR.

It might be some variant of Northern Frisan, no idea.

I think the best I can do is to make the fy_DE file "Western Frisian" as well.

If somebody wants a "Northern Frisian" locale, frr_DE should be added.
