Need suggestions for Swedish baby boy names to go with
a last name of Petterson.
My friend is due in Sept. and knows she's having
a boy. They have a son named Karl and a daughter
named Linnea.
Thanks,

Thank you for the responses. I will let her know.
I believe they are considering the name Eric.
Thanks again,

I have two cousins who's last name is Peterson and their names are:
Jay Lars Peterson and Peter Eric Peterson
(Don't ask me where the "Jay" came from. We've always called him Lars)

Hi,
Eric is not a Swedish name at all. It's origin is Scandiavian,
Teutonic (Germanic), and Old Norse. (my son's name is Eric Joseph)
Meaning: Ever-Ruler
It does sound good with Peterson though, and is a GREAT STRONG name, but
if they really want to go SWEDISH then it's not the one!
Good Luck !
