toponym

Via fellow internet caretaker Messy Nessy Chic, we discover that lexicographer Lars Petrus has undertaken the task of defining the creative names for IKEA furniture and accessories. Many items are named for geographical features in Smรฅland, but many other are quite abstract and poetical, like NUTID (present tense) and ร–DMJUK (humble). What are some of your favourites?
