SWEDISH MALE NAMES

Valtyr is an Old Norse name more common in Iceland than Scandinavian countries.

However, Iceland and Sweden are first-cousins so they're all family.

If an ethnic Swedish boy (100% Swedish blood) would be named Valtyr in today's Sweden would that be a little weird?

What about Old Swedish places/towns/counties within Sweden like Dalarna? Would it be more common to find Old Swedish names like Valtyr in Dalarna?

VOTE FOR 1 OF THESE NAMES!!!

THANKS

Ragnhild = Ragn(counsel, advice, guide [of the gods]) + Hild (battle).

Åshild = Ås (God) + Hild (battle)

THESE ARE OLD-NORSE SCANDINAVIAN FEMALE NAMES!

I'm taking an intro to Chemistry class and I'm failing it so far. It's midterm right now and I haven't been going to class for almost 3 and 1/2 weeks. I know it sounds stupid to probably 99% of the population but the reason is because I've been so horribly horribly depressed that I've neglected everything, gained weight, and I feel so apathetic and emotionless.

My proffessor emailed me and she let me know that she's planning on dropping me this week if i don't show up for class. The thing is that it's sink or swim right now and I feel so lost. I have no-one to talk to sincerely and I fear people's judgements. Please, what do I do?

Just give me something, anything. PLEASe!

This is a photograph of the piece of a classical victorian-era bedroom.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tissot-hide-seek...

The piece I am referring to is in the upper left side where a small child is peeking out from it looking down at the children.

OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT AN ENGLISH NAME. So you'll just have to step out of that mindset of thinking "ew that's a weird foreign name".

Olof - or - Torbjörn.

You'll have to "think Scandinavian" for this.

Please, this is important for my school project.

I'll give 10 points within the hour.

My last name is Vanderbilt and my husbands last name is Hemsworth.

We both love the name Beauregard (and it is extra special for me because it was my beloved grandfather's name).

We have decided to name our first son Beauregard.

However, lately I've been having some serious second thoughts because I'm worried it is too much.

Beauregard Hemsworth. My friend said the name sounded like an Southern Company.

I LOVE the name Beauregard because it reminds me of my grandfather and makes me think of Southern nobility. But it is a bit too much. Even; Beauregard Vanderbilt is too much.

Help.

What should I do?

I just need a few random pictures of REAL BLONDE couples.

I need them to make a slideshow for my Psychology of Sexuality class I'm taking.

THank you!

He's always adding a lot of random wh*re girls on fb. He likes all of their pictures.

I'm a little jealous only because I wonder if he's also messaging them too.

I DON"T want to ask him about it or even mention it because I don't want him to think I'm way too clingy or involved in his business. I don't want to be, on purpose.

So, should I be worried? Or am I taking FB too seriously?

PLEASE DO NOT GIVE ME NAMES LIKE: Emil, Kristian, or Alexander. Those ARE NOT CLASSIC SWEDISH NAMES. I want Old Norse/Swedish names. Contemporary names yes.

Easy 10 points.

I'm filling an online job application and it ask to list current of relevant job responsibilities, the only problem is that I have NEVER HAD A JOB BEFORE!

PLEASE HELP ME!

Well I'm female. I'm 20 (about to turn 21 on November 5th).

I think I've really been depressed for almost two years in December. And especially this year and last year I've been depressed (or so I think, I haven't been to a doctor). I've gained 20+lbs. Sometimes I just get so pessimistic about everything in my life. I often think of the though of suicide. Mostly as my safe plan, not actually of committing suicide, it's more of a comforting thought. I know this sounds so very cliche but I really cannot find anyone who understands me. I have no friends. I'm in college and I have no friends. I had friends in highschool but none of them go to college with me. I have no job. And I feel like my life is going no-where. I panic thinking about this, and I get very depressed. It wasn't always like this.

Straight out of highschool I went immediately into college, and I had a 4.0 GPA. I had also lost 56lbs. I went from 186lbs to 129lbs. I felt great. I had the best self esteem I've ever had in my entire life. I felt beautiful. I felt optimistic about my life and especially a great future for myself. But then at the end of last year I began to become depressed. For no particular reason. I would be so depressed I would hardly get dressed anymore, I wouldn't even go to most of my classes. And when I did I was tortured by being there. I began to feel like I hadn't lost enough weight (when before I was completely happy with my weight). But I know I'm not depressed because of my weight. My weight gain is a side-effect of my depression not the cause. I'm not sad because I've gained weight.

I also cut myself, and my arms. Sometimes when I'm overwhelmed by my feelings. A lot of the times when I'm derpressed I cut myself. A lot of the time because I want to feel pain, something. I feel like crying even as I type this.

I don't know how to talk to a doctor about this. What do I say? "Hey, I think I'm depressed".

I just want to die, but then I don't. I feel lonely and tired, and sad, and pathetic, and pessimistic, and angry, and scared.

I created a facebook page (it was a page to remember my grandfathers legacy ) and I did it without using an account. But since I didn't use an account I've forgotten how to log in.

Please help.

Give me a honest answer, no bull$h!t

Madeleine is going to be the name of one twin.

What should the other twins name be?

I want a beautiful and classy name like Madeline that preferably begins with a K or an M.

A lot of people tell me that my boyfriend and I look like brother and sister. Which REALLY REALLY pisses me the **** off. My whole family is blonde yeah and his entire family is also blonde. So that's why people say we look like brother and sister.

This is ME (the blonde) http://www.flickr.com/photos/86219166@N03/78974930...

And this is my boyfriend http://www.flickr.com/photos/86219166@N03/78974618...

BE honest!

I can take it ;)

I'm on assignment to write a fictional family for my Humanities class. The family is Swedish coming to America on Elis Island and I need to get them a Swedish surname. I don't want the most typical Patrilineal Swedish surname of SSON. So I want a farm name :)

Åkerström OR Södergård

One one is more aesthetically pleasing and which one is more phonetically pleasing? (Go to google translate and paste it to hear how it sounds in Swedish)

My husband is from Norway and he wants our little girl to have one of these names. But I can't decide which. (The first two have cultural meanings and deep Norse-historical value) and Venke I just liked it :)

Just say which is your favorite, to help me decide a little.

Sæbjørg

Bjørg

Venke
