I had a quick search and found a solution here:
https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/82993/how-to-change-the-name-of-document-elements-like-figure-contents-bibliogr#82994
What you need to do is add the following to your document
preamble, after \usepackage[icelandic]{babel}:
\addto\captionsicelandic{%
\renewcommand{\abstractname}{Fizz}%
\renewcommand{\tablename}{Whizz}%
\renewcommand{\refname}{Boom}%
}
although (obviously) with the correct Icelandic terms instead of
Fizz, Whizz, and Boom.
Hope this helps,
Rowland.
