Swedish name generator

This name generator will generate 10 random Swedish names.

Sweden is a country in Northern Europe with a population of roughly 10 million people, about 85% of whom live in urban areas. Their ancestors have lived in Sweden since prehistoric times, but, like Sweden itself, their names have changed a fair bit over those millenia.
Their names today follow the same first name followed by a surname pattern as many western countries, but you can often find remnants of the time a patronymic surname system was used. These remnants come in the form of the suffix -sson in surnames, exactly like in names like Johnson in other western countries.

Note that there are a few dozen names in this generator which aren't really modern, but they could be exactly what you're looking for, so I kept them in.
They're fairly easy to spot as they're generally longer, and the modern names tend to look and sound similar to modern names in other Germanic languages.

To start, simply click on the button to generate 10 random names. Don't like the names? Simply click again to get 10 new random names.
