Heikel
''Heikel'' is a Finnish surname from a widely branched family descended from the Heikkilä farm in the village of Oulunsuu, now a district of Oulu, Finland. Jakob Henriksson Heikkilä sold the farm in 1723 and became a merchant in Oulu. His children changed the name to Heikel; three of his sons studied at the Universities of Uppsala and Turku. In time, the Heikel family became a significant scholarly family in Finland. Branches of the family also live in Sweden and Denmark. A large number of members of the family, under the influence of the Fennoman movement, fennicized the name to ''Heikinheimo'' in the 20th century. Varying spellings of the name have occurred in older times, such as ''Heickel'' and ''Heikell'', while confusion with another unrelated family ''Heickell'' also occurs. People with the name Heikel include: * Anna Heikel (1838–1907), Finnish educator and Baptist pioneer * Axel Heikel (1851–1924), Finnish ethnographer * Carl Johan Heikel (1786–1896), Finnish la ...

Finnicization
Finnicization (also finnicisation, fennicization, fennicisation) is the changing of one's personal names from other languages (usually Swedish) into Finnish. During the era of National Romanticism in Finland, many people, especially Fennomans, finnicized their previously Swedish family names. Some of these people were descended from Finnish-speaking farmers, who had previously changed their Finnish names to Swedish ones after climbing society's ladder. This was an understandable stratagem, as official positions (and even many trades) were only open to those speaking Swedish, and a Finnish name would have been an impediment to success. A notable event in finnicization was the centenary, in 1906, 100 years after the birth of the philosopher and statesman Johan Vilhelm Snellman. Author Johannes Linnankoski encouraged Finns to give up their Swedish names on 12 May, Snellman's birthday. During 1906 and 1907 about 70,000 Finns changed their names.
