I kid you not, this is called förgätmigej (förgät mig ej) in Swedish. I was today years old when I found out “förgät” actually is an old word meaning, you guessed it, “forget”.
(The common translation for “forget” would be “glöm”.)
Oh “Vergissmeinnicht”, beautiful (“vergiss mich nicht”, german for “don’t forget me”)
In Hungarian it’s ‘nefelejcs’ with the same meaning. Curious what’s the origin of this name.
It looks like that answer might be lost to time, but the flower has been used to represent “everlasting love and devotion” since the middle ages. source (wikipedia)
