Talk:Sven Hjerson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In the books Mrs. McGinty's Dead, Sven's author considered killing him off in a book set for posthumous publication...which Agatha Christie did for Poirot.

[edit] Not Scandinavian?!

The article says that Sven Hjerson is not a Finnish name, which is correct. But Sven is indeed a popular Scandinavian name, and Hjerson is a perfectly possible Swedish surname. Even if the spelling used by Christie/Oliver might be unheard of, the patronym Gjersson, which would be pronounced exactly like Hjerson, is known from Norway. No doubt Hjerson belongs to the Swedish-speaking minority in south and west Finland. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.62.115.66 (talk) 20:01, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
