- 1943-1967 Simo Puupponen, Aapelin valitut ilot, WSOY 1972, →ISBN, page 232:
Hänen nimensä on Jalmari. Hyvin luultavasti se on Jalmari, siihen suuntaan ainakin. Ehkä Sebastian. Ehkä Frans. En ole varma, mutta jotakin Jalmarin tapaista joka tapauksessa.- His name is Jalmari. Very likely it is Jalmari, or at least something like that. Maybe Sebastian. Maybe Frans. Not sure, but something like Jalmari.
2010, Arne Nevanlinna, Hjalmar, WSOY, →ISBN, page 17:Hjalmar vaikuttaa omituiselta, Jalmari vanhalta, Jallu tuttavalliselta ja HooJalmar mahdottomalta. [ - - - ]
―Ei se mitään, tarkoitan siis, juu, sinutellaan vaan...
Hjalmar tarttuu ojennettuun käteen, mumisee Jali, häkeltyy ja ihmettelee mistä noin hölmö nimi putkahti mieleen.- Hjalmar sounds odd, Jalmari old-fashioned, Jallu too casual and HooJalmar impossible. [ - - - ]
―No problem, I mean, let's just call each other "you"...
Hjalmar grabs the hand stretched out, mumbles Jali, and gets stupefied wondering where he got that foolish name from.
