I was reading by a greentext involving Blåhaj in c/4chan and my brother asked me what was one.

“Why is the shark named that?”

    It’s sold at IKEA which tend to name their things in Swedish on account or being a Swedish company.

    Blåhaj means blue shark:

    Blå - blue

    Haj - shark

    Swedish has compound words similar to German, so it’s literally just Blueshark.

    It’s pronounced approximately “Bloh-hai”
