The Reason Names Of People From Iceland End With Son Or Sen! by ruggedtimi(m): 9:13pm On Oct 06, 2017 |
In Iceland your last name is the name of your father's first name + "son" ( if you are a female with would be "dottir" (daughter) instead). For example, "Jonas Sveinsson" or "Arna Ásgrímsdóttir" meaning the son of svein and daughter of Asgrim.
