What common mistakes to avoid when choosing a Norwegian baby boy's name?

Some common mistakes that you must avoid while choosing a Norwegian baby name include ignoring the names pronunciation, not considering the meaning, ignoring the cultural significance of the name, and neglecting the practicality of the name.

What are some cultural norms and expectations around naming in Norway?

Before the 1860s, Norwegian people followed the patronymic naming pattern while choosing their childrens names. However, they started following a different system later on, where the baby’s name was decided based on their birth order. Each child is named by drawing first names from both the maternal and the paternal sides of the family as a way to pay their respects to their ancestors and to form a new family structure.
