The Patronym as LNAB is the default rule for most Norwegians born before the legal requirements for surnames.
Many Norwegian profiles are created with an LNAB consisting of Patronym + Farm name, like "Olsen Berg". This has the unfortunate effect that neither the Patronym nor the Farm name will show up in searches or as possible matches, and is strongly discouraged.
