FOR ALL AGES
At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
The names of Swedish children tend to have an air of distinction and aristocracy.
There are a lot of fun avenues to explore in Sweden, which is known for its catchy pop music, and round-the-clock sunshine, and now nicknames are also added to this list.
Nicknames in Sweden for a male like Robert are shortened to Bob, Richard is shortened to Dick, and Andrew is shortened to Andy. It's not like that in Swedish at all. In most cases, the nicknames become somewhat longer, and this lengthening is denoted by an ending that consists of a double consonant and an 'e'.
Nicknames for women are typically shorter than those for men and frequently conclude with the letter 'an'. Elisabeth will be known as Bettan, Birgitta will be known as Gittan, Therese will be known as Tessan, and Mikaela will be known as Mickan.
We have compiled a category list of the top 45 Swedish nicknames for both sexes, many of which are common worldwide (like Kalle, Ebba, and Lukas). Instead, we went deep for some exciting and unusual Swedish names while also including a few current Swedes' personal favorites here and there throughout the list.
Swedish have many more cool nicknames than others. Pick the coolest names for you and your loved ones.
