There is a commonly held opinion that Ímar of Dublin and Ivar "the Boneless" Ragnarsson are identical, but it is equally frequently been rejected or treated as a mere possibility. On Geni it has been accepted that we do not know and separate profiles are maintained.

Detaijer

Ivar Gudrødsson, d. 874, no. konge i Dublin, Irland, med tilnavnet "konge over alle nordmenn i Irland og Britannia", et uttrykk som er det eldste vitnesbyrd om en no. nasjonal bevissthet el. identitet.

Ivar Gudrødsson var norsk vikingkonge i Dublin på 800-tallet. Han styrte i perioder sammen med Olav Hvite og foretok hærferder mot England og Skottland.

Ivar skal ha vært bror av Olav Hvite, og ifølge en samtidig irsk kilde var han sønn av kong Godhfraidh (Gudrød), som man for øvrig ikke vet noe sikkert om.

En mer sannsynlig slutning er at far til Ivar (Imair) er Gudfrød Olavsson, bror av Ragnvald Heidumhære; sønner av Olav Geirstadalv d.e.. Brødrene til Ivar er Olav (Amlaib) og Asle (Auisle) Kilde: Frian Årsnes: Vikingene før Vikingene, ss 119-121, 338. (Roger Jonsen)
