Help[Surname] Pronounciation of Ö
in reply to a message by CN
I found a link were you can listen to the pronounciation of first names. Some of them has an Ö in them. Go to this link: http://www.nordicnames.de/Aussprache.html#J
and listen to Jörg, Jörgen or Jörn.
I hope that helps.

(Here I am with my German definitions again... Please excuse me)
The ö suggests that it is German. But I doubt it. If it it though, Löwdahl would be pronounced lœf-daahl (like Roald Dahl).
Don't rely on me though, i am very unsure about this one...

The Ö itself is not a reliable indication that a name is German. I know for a fact that this name is Swedish. I used the link because I couldn't explain the sound of Ö since it doesn't exist in English. The Ö exists in other laguages as well, not only in German.
