Fun. Will try. Perhaps we will hear from some of these people sharing a cognate surname:

  Kvikk    Norwegian
  Kvick    Swedish
  Kvik     Danish
  Kvikur   Faroese
  Kvikur   Icelandic
  Kwiek    Dutch
  Quick    German
  Kwik     Frisian
  Quick    English

I at least know that there's a Norwegian chocolate bar called Kvikk and a Danish kitchen design company called Kvik.

In Dutch (which I happen to be fluent in) Kwiek is sometimes used in writing but I've never heard it spoken.
