Anders

Where it comes from

Borrowed from Danish, Icelandic, Norwegian, and Swedish Anders.

proper noun

A surname.
A male given name from Danish, Icelandic, Norwegian, or Swedish, equivalent to English Andrew. Even at a time when Anders Behring Breivik is on trial in Norway for killing 77 people in a terror attack last year – and the remote possibility he could end up at Bastoy or a similar prison some day – Nilsen and others stand up for this brand of justice.
