Norwegian female names. Scandinavian female names: a list of beautiful names for a girl and their meanings

A state in Northern Europe, in the west of the Scandinavian Peninsula. It borders with Sweden, Finland, Russia. The capital is Oslo. Population - 4,799,252 (2009). The majority of the population are Norwegians (95%). National minorities: Sami, Kvens (Norwegian Finns), Swedes, Russians, Gypsies and Jews. The official language is Norwegian in two literary varieties (Bokmål and Nynorsk). Bokmål developed on the basis of Danish during the period of Danish domination. Nynorsk was created in opposition to it on the basis of rural Norwegian dialects. In a number of communes of Troms and Finnmark, the Sami language has equal status with Norwegian. The state religion is Evangelical Lutheranism. In 2006, 82.7% of the population belonged to the state Church of Norway. Approximately 2% of the population attend church regularly. There are also Muslims (1.69%), Catholics (1.1%), Pentecostals (0.86%).

The processing of data on statistics of given names for public use in Norway is handled by the Central Office for Statistics, abbreviated as Statistics Norway (English Statistics Norway, Norwegian Statistisk sentralbyrå). Specifically, Jørgen Ouren, the author of the "Big Dictionary of Norwegian Names" ("Den store norske navneboka"), published in two editions (in 2007 and 2009). Previously (in 1998), together with Jan Erik Kristiansen, he published a book on fashion in the choice of names - Fornavn i Norge: navnemoter og motenavn.

Statistics Norway has a special section on names in Norway where you can find data on the most common names from 1870 to the present. This section has both Norwegian and English versions. There is an interactive form: by entering a name, you can find out how popular it is now in Norway (this takes into account the entire population of the country, and not just newborns). So, about your name Alois learned that seven people with that name live in Norway. Three more use this name as a second.

The Statistics Norway website also provides graphs of the popularity of many names from 1880 to the present.

At the moment, the most recent data on names in Norway refer to 2011. They were published on 01/25/2012. Usually, along with a list of the top 10 names, a general analysis of the name is given. So, it is noted that now at the peak of popularity are female names with endings in -A or -ah. After the war, 12% of girls received such names, now - 52%. In boys, the Norwegian onomastics analyst notes the continuation of the international fashion for biblical names, which, in his opinion, has reached a peak. In 2011, almost 21% of boys received such names. In 2011, among female names, the leader was Emma(third year in a row). Among the male Emil, which changed its name Lucas/Lucas.

Many Norwegians get a second personal name. In 2011, the most common middle names for girls were Sofie/SophieSofie, Marie, Emilie. The boys' names were in the lead Aleksander/Alexander, Andre, Johan.

Reports on popular names in Norway usually include data for Sweden for comparison. It is noted that most of the names from the top 10 in Norway are in the top 10 in Sweden. Obviously, this is due to the mutual influence that fashions have in naming in neighboring countries. So, a female name came from Sweden Linnea, which is derived from the name of the plant linnaea (Linnaeus), named after the famous Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus. From Sweden, the current popularity of this name was also imported - there it rose to 5th place in 2002. Now it is among the favorite names in Norway (5th in 2011, 2nd in 2010 and 2009, 1st in 2008, but 12th in 2007). Fashion for women's names with endings -a/-ah, is believed to move from west to east, i.e. from Norway to Sweden.

Recently, the increased popularity of the name has been noted Mohammed. In Oslo in 2011, 108 (or 20 per thousand) boys received this name in one of its variants and the name became the most common name for newborns in the Norwegian capital. This is explained, obviously, by the presence there of a large number of immigrants from the countries of the Muslim East.

There is also a section with the 20 most common newborn names in each county in Norway.

Here I want to show the ten most common baby names for three years so that you can see the trends in the popularity of names. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that the Norwegian name analyst combines different spellings of the name, which, in my opinion, is justified (this approach is not practiced in all countries).

The most energetic names, unusual for Slavic hearing, were and remain Scandinavian. The Scandinavians named their children based on their culture, beliefs and difficult living conditions. Today, female Scandinavian names in Russian sound more like nicknames. But some of them fit perfectly into our reality. A girl named with a Scandinavian name will definitely not go unnoticed.

The history of the origin of Scandinavian female names

Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden - these countries are located on the site of ancient Scandinavia - northern lands, cold, with harsh living conditions. The tribes of the ancient Germans inhabited these lands in the period of the early Middle Ages - the 5th - 7th centuries AD. Accordingly, almost all the names here are of Germanic origin. The Germans developed their own culture, language, way of life, and all this left an imprint on the names that they gave to their children.

In the names of girls you can often find:

• mentions of totem animals that lived on the land of the Scandinavians - a wolf, a bear, a raven;
• the names of the pagan gods - Thor, As;
• significant events and phenomena - battle, protection, struggle, torch, mystery, god, strength;
• the characteristics of a newborn are beautiful, peaceful, strong, small.

Composing names from such “bricks” is the influence of paganism. According to him, the name given at birth will determine the fate and character of a person. For the first nine days after birth, the girl remained nameless. On the ninth night, her father took her in his arms, sprinkled her with water and called her name, determining the future character and destiny of her daughter.

Most of the girls' names can be translated literally. In their native language, they sounded typical, although today it seems to us that these are more like nicknames and nicknames.

The root “-hild” is often found in the names, it is translated as “battle”. "Gerd" - "protection", "helg" - "holiness", "ing" - "power", "trid" - "strength", "run" - "secret". This is how Norwegian names were formed from one or two words. As a result, such sonorous names were obtained as Rungerda (protected by a secret), Inga (powerful), Gudrun (God's secret).

Danes, Swedes, Norwegians still use some of the names inherited from their ancestors today. Some of them have changed a little over time, as both the way of life and the language have changed. This is a natural process. But we can say for sure: the names have not lost their meanings and bright sound.

Scandinavian names are still vibrant and vibrant.

List of beautiful names for a girl

One of the foundations of paganism is the worship of ancestors, so the father looked for a name for a newborn daughter from the names of relatives. At the same time, he could change something and add a new property, which, according to legend, could protect the girl, give her special skills or define her character.

As a result, we got such names, beautiful, sonorous and energetic:

• Agnia - "edge of the sword";
• Adeline - "noble";
• Alina - "beautiful";
• Astrid - "Ace's strength";
• Victoria - "victory";
• Gerda - "protector";
• Dorothea - "gift of God";
• Inga - "powerful";
• Ingrid - "protection of the king";
• Katrin - "immaculate";
• Christina - "under the protection of Christ";
• Margareta, Margrit - "pearl";
• Matilda - "strength in battle";
• Helga - "holy";
• Sigrun - "the secret of victory";
• Frida - "peaceful";
• Helen - "torch";
• Hilda - "battle";
• Evelina - "hazelnut";
• Esther is a star.

Yes, battles, battles and the struggle for territory stretched like a red thread through the life of the Scandinavians, but there were romantics among these harsh peoples. There was a place among the wars and other, peaceful aspects of life.

Rare female names of Scandinavian origin

Ancient Scandinavian names can be found in chronicles and literary works of that era.

When reading the "Elder Edda" and other texts of the Viking Age, the eye stumbles endlessly over unusual combinations of letters:

• Brunhild - "battle of armor";
• Borghild - "assault on the fortress";
• Ragnfrid - "the power of peace";
• Solveig - "beam of the sun";
• Thorgerd - "protector of Thor";
• Hertrud (Gertrud) - "the power of the sword."

You may find these names familiar:

• Asta - "the beauty of Asa, prosperity";
• Birgitta - "sublime";
• Wilhelm - "under the protection of a helmet";
• Gudrun - "the secret of God";
• Gunhild - "military battle";
• Ingeborg - "under the protection of Ing";
• Ingrid - "protection of the king";
• Sigrun - "the secret of victory";
• Thordis - "Woman of Thor".

All of these Scandinavian female names were once very popular among Germanic speakers. Some have been transformed into a Russian sound, and at first it's hard to imagine that they have Scandinavian roots.

Modern and popular names and their meaning

• One of the names that is still used today is Inga. Short, sonorous and energetic, it translates as "powerful". Indeed, a girl with that name achieves certain heights both in her career and in her family. A softer version of the name - Inna, also has Scandinavian roots, and today it is gaining popularity again.
• Another name that has come down to us almost in its original form is Margarita. The Scandinavian version is Margrit. The meaning of the name is "pearl". It is common both here and in modern Denmark and Sweden. Margaritas feel the influence of Scandinavian ancestors: they are distinguished by their firmness of character, stubbornness and some closeness.
• The name Victoria is "victory", not just a popular Scandinavian name for a girl. It literally holds the first lines in the ranking of the most popular names for several years. By answering the question of her name, Victoria will not cause surprised looks from the older generation. But through all his life he will carry fortitude, purposefulness and desire for a home. In abbreviated form, this name in the homeland sounds like Vicky, and in Russia - Vika, Tory.
• Another popular name for a girl is Alina (“beautiful”), it is actively used both in Slavic families and in Muslim ones. It is universal in pronunciation.
• We fell in love with the name Evelina (“hazelnut”) for its unusually gentle sound for Scandinavian names. Eva or Lina is a girl with a difficult character, which, perhaps, will prevent her from building family relationships, but will give real success in business. Evelina enjoys her natural charm, which gives her a Scandinavian name.
• Increasingly, you can meet girls with the name Dorothea - "given by God." It is thanks to such a sacred meaning and gentle sound that this Scandinavian name becomes popular. The names of girls with such a translation are found in almost all cultures, including the culture of the ancient Germans.
• The name Ingrid, "protection of the king", gives its owner the will and perseverance in achieving goals. In everyday life, Ingrid is often shortened to Inna, Innusi, softening the call of the Scandinavian ancestors and giving Ingrid softness and calmness.
• Karina is possibly a derivative of the Old German Kara (“curly”).
• Erika means "strong". A beautiful name for a girl - Erna, means "skillful." Modern parents can safely choose these names when deciding what to name their daughter.

Despite the fact that the Scandinavian tribes eventually mixed with other nationalities and adopted a lot from the culture of Christians and Muslims, you can still meet women named according to ancient rules in their homeland.

Suffice it to recall, for example, modern Swedish actresses and models Ingrid Bergman, Greta Garbo, Britt Ekland, Elsa Host, Suzanne Anden, Sigrid Agren and others. In the last century, they have attracted the attention of millions with their luxury and beauty.

Ancient and forgotten names

The Scandinavian tribes left us a legacy of not so many names that can easily be called a daughter. Still, the language of the ancient Germans seems too energetic to the Slavic ear. The names Ragnfrid, Thordis, Brunhild, Gudgerd, and the like, are rarely used even at home.

Perhaps only in Iceland you can meet beauties with the names of Branja, Berglind, Edda, Unnur, Asdis and others. The fact is that in this country they especially honor their culture, which grew out of the heritage of the Vikings. Icelanders are not afraid of complex pronunciations and a confusing procedure for choosing a name for a newborn.

There is a list of names approved by the state committee, and children can only be named in accordance with this list.

There are practically no assumptions in the form of Christian and Muslim names in it, only the real heritage of the ancestors.

It remains for us not to forget that the names Olga, Elena and Ekaterina are the Scandinavian Helga, Helen and Katrin. We adopted many familiar and familiar names from these strong and harsh tribes.

Scandinavian female names: a list of beautiful names for a girl and their meanings

Beautiful male and female Norwegian names are a real find for modern parents. They meet all the requirements for people when naming a child. The names that Norwegians use have a very beautiful and original sound. Lars, Bjerg, Mats, Oliver, Nura - these words are pleasant to hear and, at the same time, easy to remember. In addition, modern Norwegian names for boys and girls are not at all trivial. They sound very bright and unusual.

However, these are far from all the advantages that the Norwegian nomenclature possesses. It is distinguished not only by its unique sound, but also by its surprisingly deep meaning. The meaning of most Norwegian names and surnames is associated with such categories as victory, battle, weapons and courage. Such content is an echo of the Viking era, during which overcoming the enemy was considered the main life goal of man. In Norway, names denoting sacred animals are also popular. In addition, there is a tradition here to name the child according to the holy calendar. In view of this, many happy women and male Norwegian names have religious significance.

Features of choosing male and female Norwegian names

When choosing a beautiful Norwegian name for a girl or boy, you need to pay attention to several factors at once. The first criterion is sound. It should be beautiful and original, but at the same time, not too extravagant for Russian society. It is also important to determine the meaning of the name you like. It must correspond to those character traits that parents want to bring up in their child.

When choosing a popular Norwegian name for a boy or girl, you should also find out its correct pronunciation. There are many dialects in Norway. In view of this, the same name can sound differently. Do not forget about such an important factor as the child's personal horoscope. The name has the strongest and most positive energy.

Scandinavian names. Scandinavian female names and their meaning

Attention!

Sites and blogs have appeared on the Internet that are not our official sites, but use our name. Be careful. Fraudsters use our name, our email addresses for their mailing lists, information from our books and our websites. Using our name, they drag people into various magical forums and deceive (giving advice and recommendations that can harm, or extorting money for magical rituals, making amulets and teaching magic).

On our sites, we do not provide links to magical forums or sites of magical healers. We do not participate in any forums. We do not give consultations by phone, we do not have time for this.

Note! We are not engaged in healing and magic, we do not make or sell talismans and amulets. We do not engage in magical and healing practices at all, we have not offered and do not offer such services.

The only direction of our work is correspondence consultations in writing, training through an esoteric club and writing books.

Sometimes people write to us that on some sites they saw information that we allegedly deceived someone - they took money for healing sessions or making amulets. We officially declare that this is slander, not true. In all our lives, we have never deceived anyone. On the pages of our site, in the materials of the club, we always write that you need to be an honest decent person. For us, an honest name is not an empty phrase.

People who write slander about us are guided by the basest motives - envy, greed, they have black souls. The time has come when slander pays well. Now many are ready to sell their homeland for three kopecks, and it is even easier to engage in slandering decent people. People who write slander do not understand that they are seriously worsening their karma, worsening their fate and the fate of their loved ones. It is pointless to talk with such people about conscience, about faith in God. They do not believe in God, because a believer will never make a deal with his conscience, he will never engage in deceit, slander, and fraud.

There are a lot of scammers, pseudo-magicians, charlatans, envious people, people without conscience and honor, hungry for money. The police and other regulatory agencies are not yet able to cope with the increasing influx of "Cheat for profit" insanity.

So please be careful!
