Anyone have information on Reykia (f)? It looks Scandinavian to me, but it's not in the database.

It's not Scandinavian, but it could possibly be derived from "reyk", which (I think) is the Old Norse word for "smoke".

I haven't heard this name, either... But it looks like a variant of the Icelandic word reykja (smoke), as in 'Reykjavík', the capital of Iceland.
