...or "lugg", which means 'pile' in Norwegian.
- ermh, where does this information come from? :D?
- afaik "lugg" is what we call the hair on the forehead, the forelock or fringe.

Name origin
First; isn't it likely that the name comes from lug (a clumpsy/big person) rather than lug (to carry heavy stuff)?
Second; I can find no evidence whatsoever that "lugg" is Norwegian for "pile", while searching the internet. It only seems to mean one thing, and that is "fringe". Also, in Swedish (which is very similar to Norwegian) "lugg" means "fringe". I'm going to edit that section a bit. Icko (talk) 17:43, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
