From Mary Ellen Mark's photo book Undrabörn/Extraordinary Child photographed at schools and daycare center for mentally challenged children in Iceland. I think the Icelandic names have a very special beauty.

Pronounciations:
á = ow
au = uy
ö = uh
ó = oh
j = like y in "yes"
ey = ay
(a few of the children are not Icelandic)
