Re: Some notes about Scandinavian names
in reply to a message by Rebecka
I'll be adding pronunciation information to the names soon. And thanks for telling me of Astrid Lindgren - I'll add a note about her to that entry.

I'm surprised that neither Barb nor Nanaea caught that minor "error"
I mean, since both work in libraries and the Pippi Longstocking books are frequently seen in the children's section (I don't frequent that particular area.) I didn't recall Lindgren because I haven't been in the children's section since I was in fourth grade (fifth grade I started reading "The Andromeda Strain" and I haven't been back in the juvenile section since then [back in 1975].)
Sorry about the OT here. :p
Phyllis (aka Sidhe Uaine or Gaia Euphoria)

Thanks for the compliment, Phyllis, but I'm really not that observant. ( I once wore 2 unmatching sneakers to work. My co-worker still chuckles about it ten years later!))
