Between the comfortable familiarity of Scandi Familiars and the extravagant Nordic drama of Scandi Spectaculars sits the Scandi Particulars.
Striking an ideal balance, these Scandi names are uncommon and little-known in Britain but would fit in easily with current trends and popular sounds.
Their spellings are such that either pronunciation is the same across the languages, or a close enough to ensure international familial relations remain intact.
