lomvi

lomvien (definite singular)
lomviar (indefinite plural)
lomviane (definite plural)

According to the Norwegian Dictionary, from Old Norse langvé m (“guillemot”). The variants starting with lang-, similar to the Icelandic one, is attested by Aasen. Compare Icelandic langvigi, langvía and western Icelandic langvíi. Compare also Irish lamhaidh, English lavy and Orkney Scots weeo (“kittiwake”).
The form lomvi itself may be from Danish lomvi, from Faroese lomvigi. According to the Danish Dictionary, the Faroese word is derived from Old Norse lómr (“bird of family Gaviidae”) and Old Norse -vígi (like in atvígi (“assault, murder”)). The Swedish Academy's Dictionary gives a similar etymology for lom- in dialectal Swedish lomvia (“guillemot”). The Norwegian word is also attested in old Danish sources as lomvibe and lomvifve, pointing towards the original -gi ending.
On the other hand, the -m- sound may have occurred as an assimilation of -ng-. In this case, the word has nothing to do with Old Norse lómr, but rather with Old Norse langr (“long”). Lang- and lom- may also be etymologically unrelated, because they are not the main part of the term, but are interchangeable. For example, in Icelandic, the ending -vía is also used for rare kinds of guillemots, like hringvía and geirvía. If neither the first nor last parts are related, Norwegian lomvi and langvie may not be etymologically related at all, despite having the same sense and sounding alike.
Neither ending -vé or -vigi are probably related to Proto-Germanic *wīwô (“bird of prey”).
