Here's what I got from the Viking Answer Lady:



"If your father was <Steinn hálftroll>, you might be <Fjǫrleif dóttir Steinns hálftrolls>.

"We see names like  <Gufu-Hallr>, an Icelandic settler, who was the son of <Þórðr gufa>; or <Vǫlu-Steinn> in the 900s, "Prophetess's Steinn", the son of <Þuriðr sundafyllir>, who knew seiðr (witchcraft).  So given our original hypothetical father's name, you'd be <Halftrolls-Fjǫrleif>."

who now really wants to be Vǫlu-Ingibiǫrg
