Linnéa Malmqvist
Linnéa is a female given name of Swedish origin. It has two derivations, both of which are linked to the famous 18th-century Swedish scientist Carl Linnaeus, who was ennobled as Carl von Linné later in life. Primarily, people have named their children in his honor; Linnaeus and Linné have been used as given names, usually for boys, and simple modification makes the name gender female. Secondarily, people have named their children after the twinflower ''Linnaea'', which was itself named to honor Linnaeus. Linnaeus' family name in turn is derived from the Swedish word , indicating the linden (lime tree). Linnéa or Linnea was the seventh most popular given name for girls born in Sweden in 2008 and was the most popular name for girls born in 2008 in Norway.
