At present, ours is the only public nearly-comprehensive list available with free and unlimited access. Approximately 99% of all Finns will find their name on the list. We use the abbreviations F, S, Sa, and G to indicate calendar ("nameday") names in the official Finnish-language, Swedish-language, Sámi-language, and the Greek Catholic (Orthodox) calendars of Finland. The terms 'forename' and 'name' are used to refer to any personal names that are not considered surnames by the Finnish Law. The lists thus also include middle names and matronymic/patronymic names. There is a small article in Finnish on the linked names. FORENAMES FINLAND SELECT INITIAL: ?
