"But this time, the authorities have decided to apply the letter of the law," Cardew, a British-born cook who moved to Iceland 14 years ago, told the Guardian. "And that says no official document will be issued to people who do not bear an approved Icelandic name."

Well, does that preclude immigration/naturalization?
(And wouldn't a name-change also be an official document, which would have to be issued to someone who wanted to get an approved name?)
