The humans were chosen and defined in terms of forty genetic markers. these genetic markers were assigned (by the aliens) a hierarchy of desirability. The first generation had only a single last name, that of their genetic marker. The second generation had a hypehentated genius name, with the first word being the deignation for the highest rated marker between the parents and the second being the lower rated. Children are called by their sex and birth order, being something like first male offspring of gene marker 15 and gene marker 33. The next generation would take the highest marker from each parent and so on.
Just my two bits.

I thought it was a-sson etc; i.e., the first name, not the second (which is
presumably already a sson or dottir)

The Icelandic naming system goes like this:
{a.A} (patfu) + {b.B} (mamta)
-> {c.A-sson} (bersa) / {d.A-dóttir} (tixnu)
or
-> {c.B-sson} (bersa) / {d.B-dóttir} (tixnu)
