    Ah, that’s a interesting story actually.

    See, when he was a little kid, he fell a lot on his head and had quite a few concussions. The Swedish word for concussion is “torva”, so they decided to change his sirname in order to scare the concussion daemons away. And that’s why Linus can Toldvalds and why he’s the only one that can Torvalds.
