  • Street names in Iceland generally reflect a duo-theme for each neighbourhood, the former part of each street name is chosen to conform to an alphabetical order of streets and a naming convention (usually nature related), the latter part is an ending which is common for all the streets in the same neighborhood. The ending is also usually used to denote the neighbourhood, for example where all the streets end in –salir (hall) the neighbourhood itself is referred to as Salahverfi (neighbourhood of the halls). Some older neighborhoods do not follow the alphabetical order for streets. Exceptions do exist but the general rule is as above.
