My best guess would be SY-roon
Usually in Icelandic, the AE makes a sound like saying the letter "i". And the u with an accent makes a sound like the "oo" in zoo.

My guess: say run but emphasis on the run.or perhpas it roon.
If behindthename has the name listed, it should tell you the correct pronounciation.
