Axel (name)
Axel (also ''Aksel'') is a Scandinavian, German language, German, French language, French, and Dutch language, Dutch masculine given name. In Estonia, Denmark, and Norway the spelling Aksel is more common. The Finnish form of the name is Akseli, while a French language, French feminine form is Axelle. Because the Danish archbishop Absalon (1128–1201) was also known as "Axel of Lund", the name has been interpreted as a corruption of the Hebrew name Absalom. ''Axel'' arose via ''Axelen'' from ''Absalon'', possibly by conflation with the existing names Eskil (other), Askel and Askil, medieval forms of the Old Norse name ''Ásketill'', from ''Æsir, ans'' "god" and ''kjell, ketill'' "cauldron/helmet".''Också förväxlingar mellan Askil och Absalon samt Askil och Asgut har skett i fda. Om man nu vill hänvisa till rundanskans askil — i rundanskan finns således formen — borde man ha skrivit 'Fda. Eskil', ty det är i denna spalt man finner askil.''En dat is waar. ''Namn ...
