@olden89c har ikke studert noe innen dette feltet, tror alle 3 prøver å si det samme her haha.

@strv Jeg vet ikke hvor mye du har studert skandinaviske navnemønstre (f.eks. på SSB o.l.) men det er små historiske forskjeller på landene. Det er klarere skille i dag enn før.
For ikke å nevne alle de norske områdene som ble tatt av svenske krigsherrer (Bohuslen osv). Det skaper forvirring for uvitende amerikanere.
Vær klar over at danskene førte meg seg en del endringer i stavemåten (Olsen/Olsson). Ved ankomst i USA var det vanlig å bli påtvunget en engelsk utgave av for- og etternavn.

@olden89c Your absolutely right but some names are more common in say sweden then norway, for eksample some names are more typical British names or Canadian names. Their all english but just more common elsewhere. And thats what i think Mathias was trying to say. The names arent as common here in Norway today but i guess they were more widely used back then. Thats all.
Great video btw im fascinated about americans fascination of their heritage of norway :D if that made anysense :P

@mathias1211 Sorry, but most Americans know very little about Scandinavia in general and nothing about the specifics. I've noticed many of you tend to think there's a "rule" that a Scandinavian name is only used by one nationality... That's blatant nonsense.
Considering the common ancestry, languages, intermingling, change of borders, national alliances and not least cultural exchange there's no clear difference then or now. First names and surnames are generally shared and used by all three!
