I expect there's assortative mating, rather than random mating (which, frankly, sounds like it only happens at Christiania in Denmark), so 50% could still be true, at least among runners and musicians.SteveQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16943650844671498074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-26068199267016566512010-06-09T16:31:51.549+02:002010-06-09T16:31:51.549+02:00It was a great pleasure to finally meet you and He...It was a great pleasure to finally meet you and Henriette :-)<br /><br />I ran the relay two years ago, and it is hard work, because you have to run at high speed everytime it´s your turn!

See here for example: http://www.denstoredanske.dk/Samfund,_jura_og_politik/Sprog/Navne/Danske_fornavne/Helle.<br /><br />But, since you have the name Helle, I'm a bit more inclined to trust you :).

And I think it's also short for Helen.

Hvor var det sjovt og du var altid glad og morsom og du klager aldrig! Og du løb for mig da jeg skulle på toiletet. Det glemmer jeg aldrig.<br /><br />Ja, vi ses i Slagelse!<br /><br />Diana,<br /><br />Yeah. I LOVE the skirt. In 2001, I ran all the time in a skirt and then got away from it. But now (thanks to Olga, who gave me the skirt) I've been reminded of how nice it feels. But they have to be made out of a nice thin material with a thin material for the lining, too.<br /><br />Helen, Yes, this is where it gets confusing. As far as I understand it, Helena is the Danish versio of Helen and Helle is the short version of the Nordish name, Helga (meaning "the holy").<br /><br />Mmmonyka, I'll then pretend I'm not mad :).sea legs girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-54446171812005524602010-06-09T06:30:51.684+02:002010-06-09T06:30:51.684+02:00Steve Q, I'm sure this is not the answer you e...Steve Q, I'm sure this is not the answer you expected, but it seemed like a fun challenge (emphasis on challenge since I made a mistake in the math above and am trying again). Approximately .53% of all Danes are named Rasmus. That means about 1.06% of all males are named Rasmus. About .63% of all Danes are named Helle, thus 1.26% of females Helle. A rough estimate. So, to get the chance that one would marry the other, one should multiply the population frequencies together .0106 x .0126and one gets .00013. SOOOO, if the names Rasmus and Helle are equal in the weddable and non-weddable ages (which they are not, but let's pretend), .013% of all couples in Denmark are made of Helle and Rasmus. So 50% was quite close. I don't know any of those couples, but they must exist.sea legs girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-14267814875222136872010-06-09T04:11:53.462+02:002010-06-09T04:11:53.462+02:00I am going to pretend that I have not read your co...I am going to pretend that I have not read your comment on my blog...mmmonykahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09703551248084847150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-72652551330013383162010-06-09T02:27:04.779+02:002010-06-09T02:27:04.779+02:00So is Helle like Danish for Helen?
