is it ancient swedish or is it norse or are they the same thing? In the area where I grew up (gods own county) there are many words in current useage that are derived from Norse and very many place names. English has a huge vocabulary by comparison with most other languages because you will often find two or three words for very much the same thing, one derived from latin/french, one from norse / german.
