[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone! We have decided on a girl name for our baby but we don’t know the gender yet and we are completely lacking in the boy name department! For a girl we loveeeee [name_f]Freya[/name_f]. We want a similar style Scandinavian name for a boy!
Any suggestions??

Thanks and congrats on the + test!!
I like [name_m]Magnus[/name_m] and [name_m]Lars[/name_m] from your list. I’ll have to ask hubby if he likes them

I immediately thought of Braum! Great, strong name.
Other names…
[name_m]Brandt[/name_m]/[name_m]Brant[/name_m]
[name_m]Erik[/name_m]
[name_m]Leif[/name_m]
[name_m]Kirk[/name_m]
[name_m]Olin[/name_m] (nickname [name_u]Ollie[/name_u]?)
These were my favorites of what I found! Good luck!
[name_m]Viggo[/name_m] was already suggested but I definitely second it! It’s such a cool and powerful name. I love [name_m]Viggo[/name_m] and [name_f]Freya[/name_f] as a pair!
I also really like the suggestion of [name_m]Magnus[/name_m], another one that’s been growing on me lately.
Some more Strong Sounding/Norse/Scandinavian/Viking-esque names
Endre - Ender is sort of a similar name which I think has a ‘viking’ kind of quality.
[name_m]Gunnar[/name_m]
[name_m]Henrik[/name_m]
[name_m]Matteus[/name_m]
[name_m]Matthias[/name_m]
[name_m]Rayner[/name_m]/[name_m]Rainer[/name_m]
[name_m]Evander[/name_m]
[name_m]Otto[/name_m]
[name_m]Frey[/name_m] - Obviously it would eliminate the choice of [name_f]Freya[/name_f], but I think it’s just as cool
[name_u]Finn[/name_u] or [name_m]Fynn[/name_m]

Esper (found this name for a boy from denmark, very rare but definitely usable)

Accessible Nordic names for boys (some are more ‘Viking’ and some are more modern Nordic):

I would advise you to make sure you don’t pick something too obscure that you don’t know how to / can’t properly pronounce, e.g. [name_m]Gunnar[/name_m] pronounced [name_m]Gunner[/name_m] or [name_m]Leif[/name_m] pronounced [name_u]Leaf[/name_u]. In my opinion it is not a good idea to take names from a certain culture or language and then butcher them.

Some people certainly have very original ideas about what constitutes a Scandinavian name.
