Technically, the daughter of Frostí, which is a recognised masculine name in Iceland. And also her father’s name: they don’t use family names in Iceland (other than about 7 surnames grandfathered from the Danish colonial era, but those are uncommon), and people have one or two given names and a patronym, a system which has so far scaled well enough for Iceland.
Fun fact: Germany recently re-introduced patronyms. Technically only applies to Frisians but at least in my state being Frisian is as simple (as far as the state is concerned) as claiming that you are so it’s a free for all. So there’s again going to be Knut Jansen, son of Jan Peters, son of Peter Larsen. To modernise the whole thing also matronyms are allowed.
Yeah, I saw the í but well.
It’s like the old swedish minister of justice, Gun Hellsvik (hellsweek).
Do they always switch the last name in Iceland? Like many places has “son of” like Svenson in Sweden, but it became a family name so it doesn’t change any more.
