Swedish Girlie

Pernilla is a feminine Scandinavian name, primarily used in Sweden, that originated as a diminutive form of Petronella, itself a feminine version of Peter. Deriving ultimately from the Greek word 'petra' meaning 'stone' or 'rock,' Pernilla carries connotations of strength and steadfastness. The name gained popularity in Sweden during the mid-20th century and remains reasonably common there, though it's rare in English-speaking countries. Pernilla has an appealing melodic quality with its soft consonants and lyrical ending. Swedish actress Pernilla August has brought some international recognition to the name. For non-Scandinavians, it offers an uncommon yet accessible option with a touch of Nordic heritage and elegance.
