Bill Leksen - homepage (English version).


My name is actually spelt "Leksén". This name comes from the Swedish town Leksand in Dalarna (Dalecarlia, Sweden). Towards the end of the 19th centuary people started changing their common Swedish names such as Andersson (sun of Anders'), Persson etc, often by adding a so-called prestige grapheme to the root taken from a place name. This is just the case with the name Leksen which is rather a rare Swedish surname.
