- Håkan abstract "Håkan is a common Swedish given name. It has a common origin with the Norwegian given name Haakon (modern Norwegian Håkon, Danish Hakon) in the Old Norse Hákon. The meaning of the name is disputed but a possible meaning is "high son" from Old Norse há- (Proto-Norse hauha-) (high) and konr (kin). On Swedish runestones the name is usually written Hakun and in medieval documents usually Haquon or in the Latinised versions Haqvin/Haqvinus. From the 16th century and onwards the name is usually written Håkan. Although in some western regions the name can be found as Håkon and Håka as late as in the 18th century. In Old East Slavic the name was written Yakun (Cyrillic: Якун). For example the Primary Chronicle mentions the Varangian leader Yakun that arrived in Kievan Rus' in the year 1024 and fought in the Battle of Listven. The name never became popular as a Slavic name but at least two high rank Novgorod officials had the name: the posadnik Yakun Andreevich (Cyrillic: Якун Андреевич) (mentioned 1167) and the tysyatsky Yakun Namnezhich (Cyrillic: Якун Намнежич) (mentioned 1214).An old English name form Hacon has survived in English placenames like Haconby which literally means Hacon's Village, originating through Norse settlers in England.Some famous people by this name are:Håkan Algotsson, ice hockey goaltenderHåkan Andersson, Swedish former motocross World ChampionHåkan Andersson, Director of European Scouting for the Detroit Red Wings professional ice hockey teamHåkan Carlquist, former motocross world championHåkan Dahlby, double trap shooterHåkan Ericsson, wheelchair racer and ParalympianHåkan Eriksson, orienteering competitorHåkan Eriksson, retired ice hockey playerHåkan Fredriksson, producer and musicianHåkan Hagegård, baritoneHåkan Hardenberger, trumpeterHåkan Hellström, musical artistHåkan Isacson, Swedish intelligence agentHåkan Jeppsson, chairman for the Swedish football club Malmö FFHåkan Johansson, drummerHåkan Juholt, politicianHåkan Jörgensen, author and freelance journalistHåkan Karlsson, freestyle swimmerHåkan Lans, inventorHåkan Larsson, politicianHåkan Loob, ice hockey playerHåkan Magnusson, 14th-century king of SwedenHåkan Malmrot, swimmerHåkan Malmström, football playerHåkan Mild, football playerHåkan Nesser, authorHåkan Persson, musical journalistHåkan Pettersson, orienteering competitorHåkan Spegel, 17-18th century writerHåkan Svensson, football goalkeeperHåkan Syrén, military generalHåkan Södergren, ice hockey playerHåkan Westergren, actorHåkan Wirenstrand, keyboardist for Little DragonHåkan the Red, 11th-century king of SwedenHåkan Fors, a great DB expert in Sweden".
