The story I remember hearing is that his mother is Swedish but his father is Irish, and when they started their family, his mother thought it would sound weird to give her children traditional Swedish first names, so she suggested they chose Irish first names.
So, he's half Swedish, half Irish, born and raised in Sweden but has an Irish first name to go with his Irish surname.
