Ingvar (name) Ingvar (name) The name Ingvar is an Old Norse first name for men common in Scandinavia meaning "protected by Yngvi". Many notable Scandinavians have had this name, for example, the founder of IKEA, Ingvar Kamprad, the former Swedish Prime Minister, Ingvar Carlsson, and the legendary Swedish king, Ingvar. The feminine version of the name is Inga. The first element of the name is derived from Proto-Norse *"Ing(w)ia" ("Ingi"-), Norse "Yngvi", who is better known by the title Freyr "Lord". The second element is probably either *"harjaz" (warrior) or *"warjaz" (defender). The name consequently either meant "Freyr's warrior" or "Freyr's defender".
