Icelandic Naming Committee
The Icelandic Naming Committee〔 ((アイスランド語:Mannanafnanefnd);〔 pronounced (:ˈmanːaˌnapnaˌnɛmt))—also known in English as the Personal Names Committee〔—maintains an official register of approved Icelandic given names and governs the introduction of new given names into the culture of Iceland.
==Composition and mission==
The Naming Committee was established in 1991〔 to determine whether new given names not previously used in Iceland are suitable for integration into the country's language and culture. The committee comprises three appointees who serve for four years, appointed by the Minister of Justice—one to be nominated by the Icelandic Language Committee, one by the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Iceland, and one by the university's Faculty of Law.
A name not already on the official list of approved names must be submitted to the naming committee for approval. A new name is considered for its compatibility with Icelandic tradition〔 and for the likelihood that it might cause the bearer embarrassment.〔 Under Article 5 of the Personal Names Act,〔 names must be compatible with Icelandic grammar (in which all nouns, including proper names, have grammatical gender and change their forms in an orderly fashion according to the language's case system). Names must also contain only letters occurring in the Icelandic alphabet, and with only occasional exceptions, a name's grammatical gender must match the sex of the person bearing the name.
As of the end of 2012, the Personal Names Register (Icelandic: ''Mannanafnaskrá'') contained 1,712 male names and 1,853 female names.
