I just got my alumni magazine, and here are a few of the birth highlights. My college is in the Midwest and made up mostly of students of Scandinavian descent.

Most popular girl names: Annika (or Anika) and Quinn

Most popular boy names: Jack, Benjamin and Andrew

Very Scandinavian girl names used: Freja, Kjirsten, Elsa and Marit

Most Scandinavian boy name: Espen

And the very different names (I don't care for them):

girls - Brittastina, Claranna and Lumia; boys - Hampton and Torren

    If you're a cobber girl, did you go to Concordia?

    On the names-I know a couple of Annika's, and an Elsa. Being Scandinavian, I would love to use Scandinavian names on my future children, but I married an Italian, and Scandinavian first names sound pretty funny with a very strong Italian last name. I love Greta & Aksel.

    I'm a Swede (my father is from MN) and I have a cousin named Kirsten, Gunnar, and Bjorn. My great-grandpa is Eric and I would love to use that name, but DH hates it.
