Danish baby names include many names that are the familiar Danish spins on pan-European names: consider Frederik and Kristen. And then there are the Danish names not usually found outside Copenhagen and environs, such as Bendt (the Danish form of Benedict) or Jesper (an intriguing spin on Jasper). A small country connected to the European mainland and separated by water from the other Scandinavian lands, Denmark has its own distinct culture including names.
