[Opinions] Names of some Swedish twins - WDYT?
Very famous sport twins in Sweden:
- Daniel & Henrik
- Sanna & Jenny (Sanna is short for Susanna, Jenny is probably not short for anything)
Locally famous twin pairs, all born the same week on the same hospital in the same little town:
- Maria & Anna (a popular twin combination)
- Lovisa & Daniela (Lovisa is the Swedish form of Louisa)
- Erica & Maria (Maria is a very popular name in Sweden)
- Susanna & Caroline
Other twins I've read about:
Linus & Linnéa (they look very similar but don't sound so, since the stress is different: LEE-nus & Lih-NEH-ah)
Fanny & Nelly (Fanny is pronounced as "funny")
Julia & Josefine
Kristine & Karoline
Madeleine & Therese
Emma & Lisen
Måns & Klara (Måns is a form of Magnus, the "Å" is pronounced as "AU" in Paul)
Ludwig & Elias
Hugo & Tuva (Tuva is a form of Tova)
Kevin & Robin (both boys; Robin is mostly a male name in Sweden)
Jonathan & Amanda
Lukas & William
Paula & Petra
And two British twin pairs, Richard & Mike and Joanne & Suzie, met. Richard and Joanne married and had twins Joshua and Oliver.
- She said he made a racial slur!
- Racial? She is Swedish!
- Maybe he called her Meatball.
Equality never goes out of style.

Thanks! It's interesting to see what names are being used in other countries. I especially like Sanna & Henrik.
Very famous sport twins in Sweden:
- Daniel & Henrik - I love Henrik!
- Sanna & Jenny - Sanna is lovely, Jenny is terribly boring imo.
Locally famous twin pairs, all born the same week on the same hospital in the same little town:
- Maria & Anna - If it's popular I suppose it may sound a little tired to you, but I think it's charming.
- Lovisa & Daniela - Lovely!
- Erica & Maria - I like Maria, but not Erica.
- Susanna & Caroline - Ugh. I don't like either one of these. I like Sanna, but not Susanna. It's ok, I just don't think it's very interesting, and Caroline is just... ugh!
Other twins I've read about:
Linus & Linnéa - ooh, I don't like Linus pronounced that way at all. Linnéa is lovely!
Fanny & Nelly - silly, ridiculous sounding names in my opinion.
Julia & Josefine - Julia is a little boring, Josefine is ugly.
Kristine & Karoline - Blah.
Madeleine & Therese - I don't really like either of these, but they're ok I guess.
Emma & Lisen - Emma is excessively popular here, and I'm quite sick of it. Lisen is interesting.
