Well. it´s not a story at all. I had no idee that there was a site like this. I´m from Sweden and we are kind of a big family with the name Kalm here. As far as I know the name Kalm comes from eastern Europe, or rather Baltikum. The name was used by the military authorietis in the old draftsystem to the army. When there were to many Johansson and Svensson they gave new names after the house they lived in and very often the soldiers received the same name as the soldier that lived there before him. Strange to be the first to wright here , but as far as I know there must be several Kalm´s in US too.
Best regards. Stefan Kalm of Sweden.
