North European Town Name Quiz

Welcome to the north european town name quiz. What is your town name? How many letters are in it? Almost all cities have unusual names, but not so much European cities. Some towns, like Feuchtwangen, have strangely long names, like "Moist Cheek," which means "wet cheeks." In Norway, their town name starts with an A, which means small river. Estonia doubles up on the letter A for its town's first letter, so it's hard to pick out a real city in Estonia.
