* AccidentalMisnaming: A lot of ABBA merchandise, as well as pressings of her German singles, had her name spelt as "Agneta". Promotional material during the group's early days even called her "Anna", but that led to some confusion between her and Anni-Frid.



* MyNaymeIS: She was born Agneta, but she added the "h" to her name herself, probably to distinguish it since Agneta is a common name throughout Scandinavia. However, she did run into problems with this, as the SpellMyNameWithAnS example details below.

If I'm not mistaken the group actually tried to call her "Anna" because they thought it would be easy than the whole problem with the pronunciation of "Agnetha".

--> "Oh my God. Do they not have bottoms here?"

* InformedLoner: Has been compared to Creator/GretaGarbo in terms of apparent hermitude, but is also frequently photographed at parties. The press still hasn't caught up to the concept of liking one's own personal space while also as being social and gregarious at times.
