150 Popular Swedish Surnames Or Last Names, With Meanings


Surnames were not common in Sweden before the 19th century as they followed the patronymic system, meaning a person’s name was derived from the father’s name or a paternal ancestor’s name with a prefix or suffix added to it.

The members of the clergy, nobility, and soldiers began to adopt non-patronymic surnames, and by the late 19th century, surnames began to change and served as a reminder of the place they lived in or their occupation. Also, in the 17th and 18th centuries, members of the middle class adopted ornamental surnames, which consisted of two elements, with the first element consisting of a farm name or a topographical feature (1).

Here is a list of 150 Swedish surnames, along with their meanings, to help you better understand your Swedish family lines.
