If you mean the name then before it was named Iceland it was called Snæland (Snowland (some dude saw snow in the mountains and thought it was a good idea)) Iceland was only named Iceland because someone saw some ice floating in sea when they arrived. Iceland is not covered with snow and ice and there for it is not an "ice" land
