HelpRe: More unusual, interesting old Swedish names and combos
in reply to a message by Felie
All the names are from Sveriges Dödbok, a digital database listing facts about every Swedish person who died between 1901 and (in the version I use) 2009. It's used by genealogists, archivists, etc.
The reason for all the "amore" names is simply that I searched for names beginning with "Amor". Then I got the names of every Swedish person who died between 1901 and 2009 and had a name beginning with Amor! So there have really just been a handful of them. If ou search for every Swedish person called Sven or Karin, for example, you get ten thousands of matches!
Yes, Lenina is most certainly after Lenin.
Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?
