Names

I saw one article in Internet that tells about some new names people have given their children:

Well, the Finns have been very imaginative. The board that has the authority to make desicions within names has supported (for example) the names Eveliia, Rosabella and Vivana because "they are very beautiful". Some examples of boys´ names would be Hekku, Temppu and Uljas Urhea Mikonpoika. The board thinks these names sounds real names, not nicknames.


When taking a look towards the population register, we can see the most popular names in the year 2012:

It shows my name is on the 3th position. Also Sofia and Maria are keeping their places. Guess they never get old. We can say the same about Juhani, Johannes and Mikael.
