It reminds me of Helvete, which means Hell in Swedish.

Nah.

It has a 1920s/1930s vibe, along the lines of Vietta, Veneta, Juanita, Loretta, etc

Very dust bowl.

Also reminds me of the fond, Helvetica.

Like naming a child “Switzerland.”

Makes me think of Helvetica. It's an okay font but I prefer Times New Roman, or Calibri if I have to choose a sans serif.

Those are good, but my favorites are Garamond and Verdana.
