I love the name Bjorn! I think it's very handsome and I like the meaning. I also love it because of the beautiful Bjorn Andresen.

I think it goes very well, and I like it. The only possible snag is that it can be a nuisance having to type the umlauted o ... and having to explain what it is and how it works. But there's nothing wrong with educating the public.

I know a quite a few Björns in my age (20s). I think it's pretty timeless, and it sounds fine with Sven and Ingemar.

I had the biggest crush on Bjorn Borg growing up in the 70's. Ah, memories.

Being a bear myself, I adore the name Bjorn. Bjorn (or even Bernd) and Ingemar are especially nice together. Sven is nice too.

I disagree with Ninor that Björn is dated and boring. I think it's the least dated name of the three and it's not boring. I went to high school with a boy named Björn but that's the only Björn I know. Actually, I would love to meet a little boy named Björn. It goes well with Sven and Ingemar. It's a very Swedish/Scandinavian old names sibset and I kind of like it.
Ingemar is the one I would replace if I had a choice. Sven and Björn looks very nice together and I want something that's similar to those two, like Lars, Leif, Hans or Jarl.

Boring and dated as h*ll. And I really dislike Sven too. Those are not names for children imo. Ingemar isn't a name for a small child if you ask me either, but I kinda like it. Maybe Gunnar, Axel or Ragnar?
