I assume the dottir bit means daughter of or something like that similar to the people who have Mc at the start of their name.

Edit: I also second the post below, weird thread.

Dottir means daughter in Icelandic while son means, er, son. Most Icelanders' names are based on their father's first name in what's called a patronymic naming system . So if Magnus Jonsson has a son called Ragnar and daughter called Astrid they would respectively be called Ragnar Magnusson and Astrid Magnusdottir. If Ragnar had a son called Magnus he would be Magnus Ragnarsson. There are a minority of Icelandic families that don't follow this naming system, Eidar Gudjohnsen's being one example.

Is the woman at the till or the bloke? If it's the bloke then that would explain the thread, otherwise I've not got a scooby.
