Icelanders usually have the traditional last name, which is the father's first name and then 'dóttir' (meaning 'daughter') or son is added to the end. Example: If the father's name is Jón and he has a son, his son's last name would be Jónsson meaning Jón's son. If Jón has a daughter, her last name would be Jónsdóttir, meaning Jón's daughter.
