Throughout the series, people refer to Gabriel Byrne's character as "Earl (or Lord) Haraldson". The Vikings used a system of naming known as "patronymic" in which one's personal name was modified by the given name of one's father followed by "son" (for a male) or "dottir" (for a female). These modifiers were not in anyway considered family names and people were commonly referred to by their personal names regardless of their rank. Occasionally, "matronymics" were used, which are derived from the name of the mother. This custom has fallen into disuse in all the Nordic countries except Iceland, where the patronymic/matronymic system is still in use and the custom is to address people by what people in most other countries would consider their given names. For similar reasons, the Earl's wife, Siggy, would never be referred to as "Siggy Haraldson"; she would retain the patronymic inherited from her father. If, for example, her father's name had been Eirik, she would remain Siggy Eiriksdottir even after marrying. Bjorn, the son of Ragnar, would not be known as "Bjorn Loðbrók" but as "Bjorn Ragnarsson". Ragnar's wife, similarly to Siggy, would not be known as "Lagertha Loðbrók". "Loðbrók" is not a family name but a nickname meaning "hairy-breeches", presumably from a habit of wearing fur leggings.
