ArchivesRe: Hugo?
in reply to a message by Miranda
i don;t think Hugo is a particular Swedish name
i think it's even rare there
what i do know is that is used in the Netherlands and Germany (and other german-speaking countries)
perhaps also in France (no, i don;t meant Victor Hugo) but i believe they have an other French form (Huge or Hugebert)

sorry ur right too
Hugo is also a 'common' name in Sweden, yes
i searched at google.com for Hugosson (meaning would be 'son of Hugo) and i find quite some results
this means Hugo is used for long time there, cause there are surnames containing it (meaning it existed in Sweden back time when surnames come into life)

About Hugosson...
...I've never heard that! :) It must be a very unusual surname. The son-names didn't become common until the end of the 19th century (dotter-names ie "daughter" are very rare today), I think, but the name "Hugi" was used in Old Norse.
