The Patronym as LNAB is the default rule for most Norwegians born before the legal requirements for surnames.
Rather than using the common abbreviations for patronyms found in records (eg. Olsdtr), the full name (Olsdatter) must be entered. This is important, because the system currently doesn't recognize that an "Olsdtr" and an "Olsdatter" may be the same person. Hence using abbreviated names will hide the profile from potential matches. Whether you will use "-datter" or "-dotter" is optional, as "-sen", "-son", and "-sson" are interchangeable for males.
