[MountainDweller]

Heh. This brings back memories. 'Twas one of the first questions (along with how to pronounce his surname) on this message board...way back in the day. Perhaps this is one for the FAQ?

Mikkel. I heard a phone conversation between Peter and a Norwegian radio host. Peter said "Mikkel". It's a Scandinavian version of "Michael" I guess, I know a guy called Mikael.

 

[Super Mahrio]

odd..i heard himself pronouce his own name: "Mikael (like Michael) Ohker-feldt"

 

[Detric]

[Christie_fell]

SERIOUSLY! Its like estimate said: -Meak (LIKE MEAL WITH A K) - a (LIKE THE A IN ARTIST) - el (EL NOMBRE)-

He is swedish, and you don't pronounce swedish names like in english.
He calls himself michael in the english way to make it easier for non-swedish speaking people. And the name "mikkel" is like a nickname.

[Shadows Skulk]

"You know who I am? I'm fuckin Mikael."

Same as Michael.

I was just about to say the exact same thing. Therefore this comment serves no meaning...I will leave now...
