The first Icelandic diesel tug was named after Hallveig Fróðadóttir in 1948.

Hallveig Fróðadóttir (fl. 870s) is traditionally considered Iceland's first female settler.[1][2] She was married to Íngolfr Arnarson, the first settler of Iceland and founder of Reykjavík.[3]

According to Landnámabók, she was the daughter of Fróði and the sister of Loft the Old.[4] She and Íngolfr had a son, Þorsteinn, who established an early thing at Kjalarnes.[5] Through him, she was the grandmother of the lawspeaker Þorkell máni Þorsteinsson. Another child, Þórnýja, is mentioned in the late Kjalnesinga saga.[6]

She gives her name to Iceland’s first diesel tug[7] and to the women’s centre Hallveigarstaðir in Reyjavík.[8]
