Reply to: origins & meanings of Rackovan & Vermoilen by Ivy Lindstrom
Hi Ivy,

I don't know the names, but they are definitely not Swedish.

Vermoilen looks like an English spelling of Vermeulen/Vermöhlen which come from Dutch "Van der Molen" which means "from the mill".

I have no idea about Rackovan. Sounds Slavic to me... (?)

Regards, Satu
