What the fuck
>Sergei, Dmitri, Mikhail, Alexey
These are pretty common around here
>Ivan, Boris, Vladimir
Literally meme tier names, almost nobody uses them as given names for boys.
>Natalya, Svetlana, Olga
Idk because I don't have female friends.
He never said that.
>Vladimir
>Literally meme tier names, almost nobody uses them as given names for boys.
Isn't your president named Vladimir?
>Sweden: Sven, Lars, Ragnar, Magnus, Bjorn, Gustav
I would think Magnus and Ragnar are more common in Norway than in Sweden (but more for the 40+ population)
Bjorn and Lars are equally common in Sweden and Norway
Gustav is unheard of in Norway
Sven would be 'Svein' in Norway and somewhat common but not overly so
>Seamus
Very uncommon.
>Patrick
Fairly common. Certainly the most common of the three you named.
>Liam
Moderately common.
> Reinhardt, Wilhelm, Otto, Karl, Hans, Manfred, Helmut, Siegfried, Sigmund, Hilda, Hildegarde, Helga, Ingrid
more or less extinct
>Johann, Friedrich, Franziska
uncommon
>Ludwig
common name
>Isn't your president named Vladimir?
Yes but he was born almost 65 years ago, I don't think this name is popular now.
>Otto, Karl, Hans, Hilda, Helga, Ingrid
Those have been common in Norway too (but not anymore)
>Hildegarde
cool sounding name
Do people really often have named that start with O'?
>mehmet
it's still common, especially between people in their 40s and 50s but it's past its peak considering more and more people are moving away from arabic-quranic names to either turkic names or western names
although hardcore arabic/ottoman names are also increasing because AKP
>France: Jean, Jacques
Pretty old-fashioned, but I know of a 25-ish guy called Jean.
> Charles
Somewhat rare, more common among upper class families.
>Pierre, Louis, Antoine
Pretty standard.
In middle school, I had a teacher from France named Jean, but he was like 40, and that back in 99.
>mfw my name is meme tier
Surprised Seamus is not more common. I worked with a guy who named his son Seamus and he was about Irish as they come.
As a surname, yes. It's Irish. Ó means grandson.
Mac/Mc means son.
Séamus is the Irish for James, and James is far more common. Off the top of my head, I think I've only met one Séamus in my life.
My name is Alfonso
>Mario, Luigi
Uncommon
>Giovanni, Giuseppe, Antonio, Marco
Very common
you skipped the most common one from spain, Antonio (anthony)
the ones you named are pretty common too, the msot common is probably María, due to christianity i guess)
Natalia and Olga exist in Spain
Magnus is still pretty common, even with younger people. Ragnar is pretty uncommon though.
Jan is old fashioned but not too uncommon. Also as far as I'm concerned Jan is also used in Poland and the Czech Republic but I'll need an Eastern European poster to confirm
Actual stereotypical names are:
>Henk
>Koen
>Toon
>Hendrik
>Joop
>Mees
>Merel
>Willem
>Anna/Ans/An
>Mien
>Lotte/Lot
Yes, same in Norway (16,000 ppl which is fairly common)

Why isn't Mordecai a common name? It's such a badass–sounding name!
>Russia: Sergei, Ivan, Dmitri, Boris, Vladimir, Mikhail, Alexey, Natalya, Svetlana, Olga
Actually, the most common in Russia are:
Boys: Aleksandr (Sasha), Igor, Andrei, Sergei and Maxim, most names are like this..
Girls: Anastasia, Aleksandra (Sasha), Yekaterina and Alisa, somewhat common are Maria and Anna.
>Italy: Mario, Luigi, Giovanni, Giuseppe, Antonio, Marco
Giovanni + other name is super common (Gianluca, Giammarco, Gianpiero), Giovanni by itself is still common, but not as much. Antonio, Matteo, Carlo and somewhat Marco are common names, Luca too, but only in some regions, I think..
Because he is a character from a meme-holiday
Nigel: old man name, dying out
Ian: fairly common
Oliver: very common
Asier Cia & Finn Olsen
So what?
>>England: Nigel, Ian, Oliver
Nigel hasn't been popular for decades and I rarely hear about a Nigel. Ian now and again.
All of the German ones are heavily outdated and almost noone under the age of 50 is named like that anymore.
>Sven, Lars, Ragnar
Old men names. Not common with young people.
>Magnus, Björn
You see them here and there. Not super common but not extinct either.
>Gustav
Pretty common.
Sven, Lars, Ragnar are grandpa names. Magnus is a typical name common among people born in the 70's.
Björn and Gustav are pretty common among younger people.
When I was in school there were plenty of James, Joseph and Michael. Mainly because I was in a Catholic school full of Lebos and wogs.
>no czechia
Jan is one of the most common names where I live
Extremely common in Norway for people 50+
Almost non existent for children though.
I know more Patricks and Liams than Seamuses. The only "Ian" I've ever met is Paisley Sr during his sermons outside City Hall.
