Hey, it is easy to spell how Icelanders pronounce it in my native language:
Eyyafyatlayakötül
Islandmountainglacier. Got it. Why didn't they say that in the first place?
On an island full of mountain glaciers, it does make you wonder how they came up with that name.
The others have names like "rock flake", "old hag", "cloak", "broad shoulders", "Erik's "glacier" and "baldric's bump" from what I can quickly find. It seems they gave up with the Islandmountainglacier.
MorningLightMountain
Good thing they're pretty isolated over there then
Baldric's got a bump that looks just like a turnip
The rest of them have names like "NoNotThatIslandMountainGlacierTheOtherOne"
Or a cognate, Eyfallicle; ey as in island, fall as in a valley(?), icle from icicle.
