It's interesting to see that a lot of the female BAs had two middle names, while most of the males had one. Is this common in Sweden or just a coincidence?

I think girls might get multiple middle names slightly more often than boys do, but the difference definitely shouldn't be as big as in these particular BAs. If you add together the last four times I've posted BAs from this source (the only one with MNs, as mentioned), there have been 38 girls with 1 middle name, 36 girls with 2 middle names, 40 boys with 1 middle name, and 38 boys with 2 middle names (and 2 boys with no middle name at all). So it's really rather equal.

Eira Vera -- The flow is awkward but I like both names.
Felicia Elsa Viktoria
Freia Eva Marie -- Prefer Freja or Freyja.

Ragnhild -- I must be crazy.
Greta
Svea
Saga Maja Hildur -- Love Hildur!
Theodor Hilding -- But not Lennart.

Erik

A lot of lovely names here.

I would love to meet a little Alva, Eira, Freia, Liv, Stella and Svea. All so beautiful. I do also love Anton, Egon, Elias, and Viggo.

Horrible! The middle names do not go with the first names.
