These weird names of IKEA are actually direct translations of the Swedish pronunciation. It is said that the founder of IKEA had difficulty reading, so it was better to give them a name than to number the furniture, which is both easy to remember and seems very human. IKEA has a special team responsible for naming furniture. In 2010, there were 9,500 products, with 3,000 new products added every year. Therefore, this team must be careful not to make the names too heavy, and also check whether there are any differences in other languages. Good intentions. Except for furniture named after designers, the rest have a naming system. For example:
Carpets are named after places in Denmark, and sofas are mostly named after places in Sweden.
The bookshelves have boys’ names or professional names,
The chairs have men’s names,
The curtains have women’s names,
Kitchen supplies are grammatical words,
Children’s supplies are mammals and birds,
Bedding is flowers and plants,
dining table is a Finnish place name

It can be called a huge database of special names.
Hope to adopt it~
