Ever looked at a girl name and got instant fairy-tale vibes? There’s a good chance it might’ve been Swedish! Inspired by classic monikers and figures from Norse mythology, Swedish girl names just have that storybook feel—not to mention an air of grace, poise and sophistication. And you really can’t ask for much more than that when picking a name for a budding princess. The best part? This list of the sweetest-ever Swedish female names is brimming with options for your baby girl, from more traditional types to titles that are just too cute to resist. Unique names aren’t quite as common in Swedish culture as they are across the US, but that certainly hasn’t stopped tons of modern variations of timeless names from taking center stage too. Needless to say, you’ve got lots to sift through while selecting the Swedish girl name that fits just right. Whether you find yourself drawn to something vintage or a little more trendy and cool, you can count on this carefully curated list for some amazing recommendations. (Want a few name ideas for boys and girls? Head over to our Swedish Baby Names for a full rundown of our favorite Nordic monikers).

Popular Swedish Girl Names

Our popularity charts have spoken, and it looks like Swedish baby girl names are making their mark as we speak! Some of the top Swedish female names right now include traditional monikers like Dahlia and Mikaela. Keep scrolling, and you’ll find creative variations of common names like Karin (from Katherine) and Carlen (from Karl) on the list too.

Unique Swedish Girl Names

When it comes to innovation, Sweden is where it’s at. But what excites us most is just how many unique Swedish girl names there are to choose from that have come right from the classics. Love Bridget? Why not switch it up with Swedish Brita? Or maybe even Lo if you like the names Lovisa and Louise. Either way, you’ll definitely want to clear up some space on your baby names list while browsing our sensational Swedish selection!

Cute Swedish Girl Names

With the sweetest-ever meanings, female Swedish names have got us head over heels in love. But it isn’t just their meanings that make them so darn cute; just like ABBA’s greatest hits, they’re easy on the ears and sound super-lovely out loud. From Lycka to Linnaea to Lova, how could you not want to break out into a rendition of “Dancing Queen” with a moniker as fun and musical as these?

Cool Swedish Girl Names

Swedish names for girls are cool as is—but a moniker inspired by someone famous? Count us in! Many women of Swedish heritage have become famous worldwide as actresses, songwriters and performers (think singer Snoh Aalegra—or even Jenny Lind if you’re into iconic sopranos from the 19th century). Baby’s talents might not be as obvious from the get-go, but there’s no harm in picking a super-cool (and super-famous) female Swedish name from this list to get them inspired.
