I kid you not, this is called förgätmigej (förgät mig ej) in Swedish. I was today years old when I found out “förgät” actually is an old word meaning, you guessed it, “forget”.
(The common translation for “forget” would be “glöm”.)

In Hungarian it’s ‘nefelejcs’ with the same meaning. Curious what’s the origin of this name.
