Scandinavian Names

Scandinavian naming traditions are rich and diverse, reflecting the cultural heritage of countries such as Sweden, Norway, and Denmark. Names often have roots in Old Norse, with a strong emphasis on nature, mythology, and historical figures. Common themes include names derived from gods and goddesses, such as Freya and Thor, as well as names that signify strength and bravery.

In addition to traditional names, Scandinavian culture has embraced modern influences, leading to a blend of classic and contemporary names. Surnames often reflect familial lineage, with the patronymic system being prevalent, where a child's last name is derived from the father's first name, often ending in -sen or -dottir. This tradition highlights the importance of family ties and heritage in Scandinavian societies.
