Jalkanen is a Finnish surname. Notable people with the surname include: *Kalle Jalkanen (1907-1941) - a Finnish cross-country skier who won a gold medal at the 1936 Winter Olympics *Karl James Jalkanen, PhD (Chassell, Michigan, 1958-) is a researcher in Molecular Biophysics at the Technical University of Denmark in the Department of Micro- and Nanotechnology. *Kari Tapio (birth name Kari Tapani Jalkanen) - a Finnish schlager-singer & one of the most popular singers in Finland for decades. *Ilja Jalkanen, a vocalist for Kiuas, a heavy metal band from Espoo, Finland. ==Meaning== The prefix ''Jalka'' generally means "foot," but also can refer to the leg of a stool or an animal's paw. ''Jalka-'' thus has a loose meaning, and when the prefix is added to the common ''-nen'' Finnish name ending it loses its colloquial meaning. Like most Finnish names, whether Jalkanen has a formal meaning is ambiguous. Generally, Finnish surnames do not have the same meaning schemes as other European names. If Finnish names were used to indicate a family's original trade (as with English and German names, like Miller, Shoemaker, Brewer, Smith, etc.) then the term "foot" or "Jalka" could refer to a profession such as a cobbler or tracker. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jalkanen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
