Explanation:
Hello, I agree with Sven.
I just wanted to add some details about the name of the person mentionned.
Hanna and Maria are also frequent first names in Norway.
The family name is constructed of her fathers first name and the ending "dotter" or "dottir" which means daughter.
(dtr is just a short form of dotter or dottir)
Here you can see that Hanna Marias father was named Halvor.
This was in former days, the usual way of contructing last names in Norway.
In Iceland they still have this tradition.
As an example Halvors son would be called Kristian Halvorsson.
(Kristian the son of Halvor)

I wish you good luck !
