Yes, I mentioned it in a comment to someone else (?) further down in the thread. So many comments here!

Scott is not a Swedish name at all. Annelise is a very old-fashioned name, more likely to be something her mother or even grandmother would be called. It would have made more sense to call him Lars/Kennet/Hans and her Ann-Kristin/Charlotte/Susanne. I was a little bit unimpressed by the lack of research there. It would have been so easy to just check online what baby names were popular during the 40/50s in Sweden.
