Icelandic ‘Girl’ has Name Approved
Blær was not one of the 1,853 female names approved by the Icelandic Naming Committee and as such the girl had been identified as stúlka, literally ‘girl,’ on all official documents since birth.
The Icelandic Naming Committee had rejected the name Blær as a woman’s name on the basis that it is classified as a man’s name and according to the Icelandic laws on human names, names cannot be unisex.
