This is an Icelandic name. The last name is a patronymic or matronymic, not a family name; this person is properly referred to by the given name Örlygur.
Örlygur Smári (born June 30, 1971) is an Icelandic producer/composer. He wrote Iceland's Eurovision Song Contest 2000 entry Tell Me!. He also wrote the song This Is My Life which was the Icelandic entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2008.[1] In 2010, he teamed up with Hera Björk to write the song Je ne sais quoi which represented Iceland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2010. The song performed in the first semifinal on the 25th May 2010 and came third with 123 points, but, in the Grand Final four days later, the song came in a disappointing 19th place receiving 41 points. Örlygur Smári's brother is musician Bergþór Smári.
