ArchivesRe: So many bad name sites out there (a little warning)
in reply to a message by Caprice
Where did you get thís?
Brand is Old Norse, and I've seen Blasius, Antonius, Antonetta, and Samson in the 19th and 18th centuries, so they could be called Swedish/Scandinavian I guess. Forms and spellings like Adolphus, Brigetta, Frederek and Frederika weren't uncommon in those times either, but they're definitely not the standard ones.
And Fisk. XD There actually are some, according to SCB, but it seems to be a "gårdsnamn" from Dalarna.
