Build Icelandic municipality names

Icelandic names are very long, but did you know that's because they usually describe the place? To make things easier, I've broken up the names and you'll get to build them.
Colloquial names used
I do not speak Icelandic. There are probably things I've broken up wrong. If you know a better translation, please let me know.
Question marks indicate extra unsuredness about the translation
