My younger daughter’s name was announced as Kirsti, after a dear Norwegian friend. However, as teachers, my husband and I decided to register her as Kirsty on the basis that every time she said her name she would have to explain ‘Kirsti with an i’. We changed it. However nowadays, probably a high percentage of pupils will have to spell their names anyway!

The article date is February 2, 2022. Then how can it possibly be about “fully year rankings for 2023”??

In reply to Chris Viken. I want to give Ragnar as middle name to my baby. But then I’m thinking, will it make People laugh, exposing his mom as a sucker for Vikings tv series 😆 My older son is Espen, just because I used to live in Norway and admired the country and its people. So I want to give Norwegian name to my new offspring to keep it consistent.
