It's been one of the most popular names here in Norway, many times being the very most popular name for girls. I'm guessing it's probably one of the most common/popular girl names throughout all of the nordic countries in general, tbh. I at times think it's very boring but hey, boring is far better than a whole lotta other stuff it could be.. it's just short, sweet, simple and timeless. A good bonus is that it also works well internationally! Plus, Starbucks have always spelled it right for me at least, so there's that 😂😂🤓

      AAAANYWAY, but yeah, I agree. Not that I ever disliked Jon or anything at all, I just wasn't used to anyone being so incredibly positive and highly energetic ALL THE TIME. I guess I'm just way too used to the typical Norwegian stereotype of people generally being more private, low key and reserved. I'm not used to constantly blissfull people - not that we're negative people or anything like that, but yeah.. oh well, I guess some people are just naturally way more energized or something. Might literally be due to the weather/climate differences we have, that's my best guess.
