Haha! In the patronymic naming system, such as is used in Iceland, the father’s Christian/first name is combined with son or dottir for surnames of male or female children, respectively.

And actually, there is as possesive “s” that is placed in between. So, Mr. Hubbell’s daughter’s fully correct name is:

Chelsea Webbsdottir

Yes!
