[Opinions] Danish Names
I need some Danish names but I dislike names like "Anna", "Laura", "Sarah", "Ella" or "Victoria". They don't seem Danish to me at all even though they're common in Denmark. I also dislike names which is strange and very rare.
Scandinavians, especially Danes, are highly welcome to answer.
Thanks.
EDIT: For a girl please and I already checked the Danish Section in this site. Most of them seemed strange to me.

Maren, Soren, Viggo?
Anneke and Soren are the only Danish names that I know off hand. Excuse me while I check my (mostly) relible baby name book.
How about:
Bardo, Christoffer, Clemens (love that one), Edvard, Ejnar, Frants, Jensine, Karen (of course! Ms. Blixen!), Knud / Knute, Kristan, Lauritz, Malena, Niels, Poul, Svend.
Or you could go to the home page here at BtN and click on the "Danish" link.
