Hallo Andy!Finnish is right. There's no "kk" combination in Swedish, "ck" is used instead. A Swedish example of a pet form of Mikael would be Micke./Satu

Hi, Satu!As you now can easily follow up, this is taken from Dr. Seibicke - and I'm afraid, his Swedish is not very good (he once told me so). And mine is nonexistent, haha! So thanks for clearing this up!Frohe Weihnachten!Andy ;—)

Dir auch frohe Weihnachten!
Ja, so ein paar kleine skandinavische Stolperer sind mir bei Seibecke aufgefallen, nichtsdestotrotz immer wieder spannend zu lesen!/Satu
