What two videos are you referring to, thm? Do you have links for them?

By the way, I can certainly change his name back, if there is confirmation of the complete name.

Here's the text in Icelandic:
Síðastliðinn sunnudag voru síðan þrír drengir valdir til að skipta með sér hlutverki Billys. Einn þeirra er úr Þorlákshöfn, það er hann Sölvi Viggósson Dýrfjörð, en hann byrjaði að læra dans hjá Önnu Berglindi Júlísdóttur í Grunnskólanum í Þorlákshöfn.
Dýrfjörð does appear to be his last name in the original text, so I will put it back in the title of his thread until we learn something different.

On the other hand.... :?

So I'm thinking that Dýrfjörð could be where his family is from. Based on Old English, which is related to Icelandic, I would guess that
Dýrfjörð means "Dry fjord."

Perhaps at some point we will have a true Icelander join us and let us know the scoop on his name. 8-)

In any case, the name that matters most is BILLY. ;)

'Coming to Iceland' page 2 : 'lola' and 'billy123' posted video links. In the videos name bars are faded in as each of the boys were answering the interviewers questions.
But be aware the first one is huge and difficult to control. I first could start to play it, after I preloaded about 600 megabytes. No replay without reload. I saw it twice and my byte meter was at 1.8gigabyte. No problem I've got a 100 gigabyte flatrate :lol:
The second one is downloadable.
