Such names were very popular in Sweden from the thirties to the sixties of the last century. Interestingly, now their popularity is growing again. They are formed by adding together several names.

Moreover, their writing can be either “through a dash”, or simply by sequential enumeration. Double names are especially popular among representatives of the Swedish royal dynasty: Carl-Johan / Karl-Johan, Carl-Gustaf / Karl-Gustav, Carl-Philip / Karl-Philip, Gustaf-Adolf / Gustav-Adolf and so on.

Among the representatives of the royal family, the following names are most popular:

Girls: Alice/Alice, Astrid/Astrid, Désirée/Desiree, Eleonora/Eleanor, Ingrid/Ingrid, Sibylla/Sibilla, Kristina/Christina, Sophia/Sophia, Louise/Lois, Margaretha/Margaretta, Elisabeth/Elizabeth.

Swedes often use a special computer program to collect information about their family members.

Then they draw a family tree and can tell guests for a long time about the owner of the name from each of his “cells”.

Swedish surnames

Swedish surnames were first formed by adding a particle - sson to indicate a family relationship between fathers and children. So the son of Gunnar of a man named Peter was called Gunnar Petersson, Gunnar son of Peter.

The first, as is often the case, surnames transmitted by inheritance were acquired by representatives of the upper class, starting from the 12th century. So, one of the most famous Swedish statesmen of the 15th century, King Gustav Vasa / Gustav Vasa, before accession to the throne, was called Gustav Eriksson / Gustav Eriksson.

Gradually, ordinary residents of the country become the owners of "permanent" surnames. During the 18th century, many Swedish men who were in military service received new, often "shortened" surnames there, since their old ones were so often repeated.

The main principle of the formation of new surnames was the use of Swedish words associated with military or natural properties, objects, objects.

Examples are: Rask / Fast, Lustig / Joyful, Spjut / Spear, Hjelm / Helmet, Lind / Linden, Björk / Birch, Holm / Hill. After the end of military service, the men retained their new surnames.

Residents of cities, especially in the north of the country, took surnames consisting of several words associated with nature. For example, these are: Lindström / Linden + current, Bergström / mountain stream, Strömbäck / stormy stream.

To me personally, such Swedish surnames are very reminiscent of films about Indians who have names associated with nature, for example, Chingachgook - Big Serpent.

Swedish names traditionally denote a close connection between man and nature.. For example, Bjorn is one of the most popular names for boys in Sweden, meaning "bear". By the way, most of the names are of pagan origin. It is worth noting that many of them have a long history. Thus, the first mention of the names of Bora and Askre dates back to the year 1000.

Often parents give their children double names (Gustav-Philip, Karl-Erik). In everyday life, only the first name is usually used, and the second or even third serves as a tribute to relatives. Moreover, unlike in Russia, it is not necessary that one of the names belong to the boy's father. An additional name may be after a grandfather, an uncle, or a distant but beloved relative.

The Swedes have never avoided borrowing from other languages. Many names came to them from the Scandinavian countries, as well as from Germany, after the conclusion of a trade union back in the fourteenth century. In recent times, the country has received common English names. This is due to the widespread penetration of English into the speech of the Swedes. Some young people even speak their peculiar mixture, which is called Schwenglish.

Swedish names have spread all over the world. But they are especially loved to give to children in Norway, Denmark and Finland.

In addition, often men with names of Swedish origin can be found in Germany and Austria. By the way, such names are not uncommon for Russia either. The well-known Igor and Oleg are also from Sweden.

To date, the most popular male Swedish names are Lars, Anders, Johan, Erik and Karl.

How are they chosen?

Sweden is a state with very original laws. So, Swedes have over 300,000 different names, but according to the law, you have to choose from a specific list, which has no more than a thousand pieces. Of course, if the parents decide to give their son the original name, then it is quite possible to do this, but they will need court permission to do so.

In Sweden, parents are given three months to choose a name. Even if mom and dad do not have time to decide by this time, the child can be registered under only one last name.

It is worth noting that such a long period is given for a reason. The Swedes are very reverent in choosing a name for a newborn.. All Swedish names have an extremely positive meaning and are associated with wisdom, strength and power.

Sweden, 2014

SELECT YEAR 2014 2008–2010

State in Northern Europe. Located on the Scandinavian Peninsula. The capital is Stockholm. Population - 9,828,655 (2015). It borders on Norway and Finland. The ethnic structure is dominated by Swedes (85%). There are also Saami, Finns, etc. The official language is Swedish. Sami, Meänkieli, Finnish, Gypsy, Yiddish and others are also represented. Religious composition: Lutherans (82%), Catholics, Orthodox and Baptists. Part of the Saami profess animism. There are also Muslim immigrants.

In Sweden, the processing of name statistics is the responsibility of the Central Bureau of Statistics - Statistiska centralbyrån (SCB). Its website contains a variety of materials on names and surnames in the country. At the same time, the data in the Swedish and English versions of the site completely duplicate each other. All anthroponymic information can be conditionally divided into three groups: the names of the entire population of the country; names of newborns by year (since 2002); surnames (100 most common in Sweden).

The names of the entire population are divided into data at birth (given names) and commonly used (normally used names). Since a child is often given more than one name at birth in Sweden, the frequency of names from the given names group is often higher. For example, the most frequent given names in 2014 are male Karl(337,793 speakers) and female Maria(447 393). Among the commonly used names, they are less common - Karl at 72 062, Maria at 83 861. Leaders among normally used names on 12/31/2014 Lars(93 993) and Anna (107 210).

A separate table presents the top 10 names in nine decades, starting from the 1920s. These data clearly show changing trends in the development of naming.

The most valuable material is the consolidated alphabetical lists of names that were given to more than 10 children. They summarize information from 1998 to the current year and show how many times a given name was chosen during each year of the period.

Expected content includes lists of the top 100 names of the year. They are posted on the site strictly in accordance with the stated date. So, there was an announcement about their appearance on January 20, and they appeared exactly on January 20. In the top 100, the names are given in two lists - in descending order of frequency and in alphabetical order. Next to each name is shown how many times it was given in the previous year and what place it then occupied.

Separately, the site lists the names from the top 100, whose popularity in the current year, compared to the previous one, grew or fell. At the same time, it is shown by how many percent and how many times each of the considered names was given more often / less often.

There is also a section with an interactive form How many are named...? By entering a name, you can find out how many people in Sweden have it. I could not resist to find out the number of my namesakes. As of December 31, 2014, there were 174 of them, for 50 it is the main name. There are both Vladimirs in Sweden (moreover, one Vladimir is a woman), and Dmitry. Even Lenins (43 men) and Stalins (18 men) and one Stalin woman.

I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the most recent data on the 20 most common names of newborns. For more information, see the SCB website (link at the bottom of the page).

How often do we laugh at what is alien to us! This strange feature is inherent in, if not all, then many Russians: what is “ours” is correct, what is “not ours” is ridiculous and absurd. This applies primarily to foreign-language names, the sound of which Russians make fun of all the time. But after all, our Dima or Sveta may seem funny to foreigners, but meanwhile they have a lot of really interesting names and surnames, often with a unique history of origin. For example, in Sweden.

Sweden is one of the Scandinavian countries and, like any Scandinavian country, it has a lot of its funny and unusual traditions. This also applies to Swedish names and surnames. So, for example, the Swedes have about three hundred thousand names, but according to the law, children can only be given names from a certain list, in which there are no more than a thousand of them. However, circumvention of the rule is also allowed - but only with the permission of the court. Enough in Sweden and double and even triple names - perhaps this is due to a rather low birth rate. In this case, the first name will be the main one, and the subsequent ones may belong to one of the relatives.

But children from the royal family are generally called very long - they have at least four names. The Scandinavians do not give the children of the ruling dynasties Christian names, but, as a rule, choose names in honor of pagan ancestors. Also, often abbreviated Swedish names become independent - for example, Chris (from Christian).

If in Russia a child must be registered with the registry office immediately after birth, then the Swedes are more loyal in this regard - they give parents three months to decide how to name the baby. After this time, the child will still be recorded - at least under the last name, even if without a name.

The Swedes are very reverent in choosing a name. They believe that "whatever you call a boat, that's how it will float." Swedish names have only a positive meaning, they are often associated with power, courage, strength, freedom. Many names mean something from nature, religion, many symbolize this or that animal - as a rule, strong and fearless.

Male Swedish names: popularity and meaning

Interestingly, the different spellings of the name among the Swedes mean different names - such as Karl and Carl, Anna and Ana. It is Karl in the first spelling that breaks popularity records among male names in this country. It came from the ancient Germanic language, where at first it meant "free man", and then - "man". The second most common name for men is Eric - of Scandinavian origin. The name is considered "noble", it was worn by several kings both in Sweden and in other Scandinavian countries. Its meaning is "eternal ruler".

Further in the top ten, Lars (Scandinavian, "laurel"), Anders (Scandinavian, "courageous, brave"), Per (Scandinavian, "stone, rock"), Mikael (Swedish, "like God"), Johan ( Germanic, “God’s grace”), Olof (Scandinavian, “observant”, the second version of the name is Olaf), Niels (Scandinavian form of the name Nikolai, “victor of nations”), Jan (Hebrew, form of the name Ivan, “God’s grace”).

Among Swedish male names there are those that are translated into our language in a more than strange way. These include, for example, Odd (“odd”), Even (“even”) or Axel (“shoulder”) - more than 50 thousand people have this name!

Female Swedish names: popularity and meaning

The first place in popularity in this country is occupied by the name Mary (of Hebrew origin, “serene, bitter, desirable.” The most popular name in the whole world). Interestingly, the Swedes have many female names that are consonant with ours, but if in Russia they end in “I”, then they end in “a”: Maria instead of Maria, Julia instead of Julia, and so on.

Also in the top ten most common female names are: Elisabeth (Scandinavian, "faithful to God"), Anna (Hebrew, "grace, merciful"), Christina (a variant of the name Christina, Christian, Greek, "Christian"), Margareta (Latin, " pearl"), Eve (Hebrew, "life-giver"), Brigid (Old Irish, "strength, power"), Karin (Latin, "sweet, dear, steer the ship"), Linnea (Swedish, "double flower"), Marie (American, "living by the ocean"). It is significant that Marie and Maria are two different names, obviously it's all about their spelling. It can be seen that among the popular Swedish female names there are many that are in Russia - in contrast to male ones.

Just like among male names, there are quite funny meanings among female ones. For example, the name Lillmore translates as "little mother", Saga means "fairy tale", and Ylva (that's the name of more than ten thousand women) - "wolf".

The most common surnames and their meaning

Like all Scandinavians, the Swedes did not have surnames until the 20th century - they simply did not need them. Instead of surnames, they used patronymics or mothers' names, for this purpose they used the prefixes "son" ("son") and "dottir" ("daughter"). Among the Scandinavian countries, the Danes were the first to “surname”, looking at them, the rest did the same. However, in Sweden, bearing a surname was still optional until 1901, when a law was passed stating that everyone should have a surname.

It was instructed to urgently invent it for yourself. And then people wrote down as a surname either the name of the father with the prefix "dream" (Andersson - the son of Anders), or their nicknames (as a rule, they had a natural meaning: Bjork - "birch", Sjoberg - "cliff" and so on), or, if the person was a military man - an army nickname (Sköld - "shield", Dolk - "dagger"). Basically, they went along the first path, which is why surnames with the prefix "sleep" are so popular in Sweden and it is not difficult to determine the origin of a person with a similar surname. It is noteworthy that they always have a doubled letter "c" - Andersson, Petersson, Johannesson and so on. The second "s" refers to the prefix "sleep", and the first denotes belonging to any person - the son of Anders, the son of Peter, the son of Johannes, and so on.

Interestingly, at the birth of a child, after the lapse of the three months mentioned, if the parents still do not know what to name the baby, he is recorded under the name of the mother, not the father. This rule has been in effect in Sweden since 1986. When marrying, the newlyweds can decide among themselves whether to take the surname of the husband or wife, but at the same time, if the man's surname is "common" and the woman's surname is "noble", they take her surname without discussion. Such “noble” ones include, for example, surnames with the prefix “von” or “af”, and in the case of the prefix “son”, the second “s” is not added to them.

In the top ten most popular Swedish surnames - all in "sleep": Andersson, Johansson, Karlsson, Nilsson, Ericsson, Larsson, Ulsson, Persson, Svensson, Gustafsson. It is interesting that the surname "Karlsson", which is in third place, is carried by more than three hundred thousand people - you can imagine how many Anderssons were in Sweden then!

What are newborns called in Sweden?

Of course, the above names are always in demand. However, every year something new appears, because any parent wants to excel, to give his child a unique name. So, in 2016, the ten most popular names for Swedish babies included Oscar, Lucas, William, Liam, Oliver for boys, and Alice, Lilly, May, Elsa, Ella for girls.

Perhaps all the peoples of the world should learn from the Swedes the talent to choose names for their children. The whole world is full of names with negative or "middle" meanings, which so often bring disappointment or failure to their owners. In this regard, the Swedes think far ahead, from birth, with the help of a correctly chosen name, laying in children the desire for victory, strength and courage.
