Snapp


Snapp is a village, in Jörns socken, Skellefteå Municipality, Västerbotten County, Sweden.
The village got its name in the 19th century when a geographical surveyor played with the childish rhyme Snipp, snapp, snorum, hej basalorum and named five new populated places in the Jörn Parish each after a word in the rhyme. The buildings' designations in the village still bear the name Snapp. Snipp, Snorum, Hej and Basalorum are four other villages in the vicinity.
