11 out of 11 !! by the way… I’m Swedish :) It’s not so hard to differentiate between the name of a person and names that not suit as a surname ! Great stuff though, Swedes do it Better !

Hehe – same here pixiebelle! Wasn’t too hard for a Swede. Even though there were some names I didn’t recognize as olympians, you know when it’s a last name or an IKEA product.
