I would probably make the connection if we are talking about very commonly used words, or if I knew what to look out for. In this case, I am not terribly familiar with that mountain range, so I probably wouldn't make the connection by myself. We have 3 different "special" letters in Norwegian, all of which have their own "latinifications", so it can sometimes be difficult to see when it has been done. (ø to o, æ to ae/a/e, å to a/aa) Incidentally, Kjolen and Kjølen are both nouns of their own. (kjolen means "the dress" as in what a woman could wear. kjølen can mean "the fridge" as in "put something in the fridge"/"put something in a cool place")
