I love the names Erik, Ivar, Aina, and Alice in the first names. They're so cool.
As for the middle names, I can easily say that I'm loving most of them. I have a strong affinity for Anders, Gunnar, Hjalmar, Ragnar, Valdemar, Ake (sorry, I don't know the accent code for that one off the top of my head. I should memorize it), Elvira, Margareta, and Viktoria. They're incredible names.
I can't even imagine trying to pair them AND getting any of them right, so I'm just going to ... not ....
The only name that doesn't seem to belong is John. I just wasn't expecting that one with all the others.
:D My family has been passing on the name Margaretta for generations. I was suprised to see Margareta in there. It's so close to my middle name. I'm in awe of that, mostly because I haven't ever met another Margaretta outside my family and that is So Close!
