Is there a command I can run that shows that I'm using ISO-8859-1 ?
I need something to google with, my previous search only gave locale
stuff, which seems fine.
The locale(1) command tells you what your locale is set to, but it
doesn't say anything about your input method -- it only tells you what
your shell and commands started from it expect for input and what they
should produce for output.

The input method will generally be part of your windowing environment,
for which you'll have to search how to check/configure your OS
(sometimes it can be set on a per-window basis, sometimes it's a global
setting).

Even if the windowing environment is set to UTF-8, your terminal
emulator might be set to ISO-8859-something, so check the terminal
emulator (e.g., rxvt, Terminator, GNOME Terminal, PuTTY, ...).

I use putty which was set to ISO-8859-1. Changing this to UTF-8 gave me the correct result:
$ echo Noralf Trønnes | xxd
0000000: 4e6f 7261 6c66 2054 72c3 b86e 6e65 730a  Noralf Tr..nnes.

Thank you all for helping me!
