Weird?  Nay, merely a better match for real conditions in the same 
latitudes that the Vikings experienced and which their descendants still do.

I'm continually amused that Scandinavian SCA members have real names 
like English-speaking SCA members want for SCA names... then the real 
Yngve Torsson's register SCA names like John Smith.  <amused smile>  The 
grass is always greener on the other side of the Arctic Circle, belike.
