Re: Extensive list of Swedish birth announcements for September
in reply to a message by Malin
Wow, nice work!
Some comments:
Alva - would have been my brother's name had he been a girl. I think it's rather cute
Alice - I've never liked this. To me it sounds like an old lady with curlers and a cigarette dangling from her mouth screaming and cussing at everything.
Alma - it's cute and it's nice that it has so many meanings. It can mean nourishing, soul, and also apple in Turkish
Signe - it's cute
Wilma - zzzz zzz
Lovis - cute
Lovisa - also cute
Märta - I like it; it was the name of a great-grandmother of mine
Ada Margit - ick
Alma Gabriela Carola - nice except for Carola
Anny - unusual, Annie is much more common
Edda - I think this is our next Alice, but it's much cuter
Emmy Edith Amelia - I like the names per se, but not together
Esmaralda - prefer the usual spelling
Estelle - ohh, brave to choose the princess name
Evangeline - me like
Hillevi Bricken - this one is from Uppsala. I have seen Bricken in a book, is it a name from the north of Sweden?
Johanna - it's common, but I love it
Joy Synnøve Cielo - cool, but I can't say I like it
Laerke - cute
Maja Aina Teolinda - TEOLINDA? Now that's unusual
Novalie - this is so sugar-sweet...ick
Ophelia - love it
Melvin - sounds like "mellow"
Eddie - screams "bully"
Liam - so does this
Sixten - yay, like my cat! :)
Dexter - can't stand this, only makes me think of murders...
Hilding - haha, this is so cute
Kevin - trashy
ANAKIN Ferdinand - Anakin is AWFUL
Bobo - childish
DANIEL Roland Bert - Bert, poor child. Good to know it's not his first name
Danny Zakarias - Danny is trashy
Devin - trashy
Fex - what!?
Gabriel - my brother's name!
Kuentin - strange spelling
Lotus - I guess it's not after the flower, but after the car
Nilas - Saami kid? Rather cute name
Oskar Yuri August - interesting
SEBASTIAN Andreas Leon - I would have them in another order, but good names
Shire - umm, like in Oxfordshire and Yorkshire? Or is it pr. SHEE-reh?
Wayne - hockey fans? Or western fans?
Aylin & Elina - too close
Elissa & Elias - both names are cute, but they sound too much alike

Bricken was used a lot in Gävleborg a century ago, for some reason.
Fex's siblings had very common names. Makes me wonder if they didn't just miss a couple of letters in Felix?
I would think Shire is a SHEE-reh.
