[Opinions] Re: Names of Icelandic children
I've loved the Icelandic language since I first heard the Icelandic version of Once Upon a December (http://youtu.be/SkNG7h_wu1g). It has a magical sort of sound to it.Although I have to admit I nearly choked when I got to Blómey... immensely unfortunate name to have should they travel anywhere where English is spoken haha! And while Jökull looks lovely, it sounds like 'yokel', which is also unfortunate. Then there's Gudbjörg-- I have to say this is actually one of the ugliest names I have ever, ever seen. It's up there with Gertrude. I like:Alexander Vidar
Lilja
Sigurjón

Lára Lilja - like them separately but it sounds funny in a combo
Klara

Elín
Beinta - this is so different and I kinda love it.
