Sweden

Local name: Sverige

Countries are colored by the family used by their primary display language. Multilingual countries are marked when their names cross families.

Name Families

Sverige / endonym family

Names grouped as likely derived from the Old Norse Svíþjóð ('land of the Svear'), giving the Swedish endonym Sverige and its Germanic cognates (Sweden, Schweden, Zweden, Suède). This root spread through most European languages and, via those intermediaries, into much of the rest of the world.

Examples: Sverige, Sweden, Schweden, Suède, Zweden, Suecia

Ruotsi / Finnic-Baltic family

Names grouped as likely derived from the Old Norse root *Róþs- (rowers, the Norse traders who gave their name to Rus), which entered Finnish and related Finnic and Baltic languages independently of the Germanic Svear root. Finnish Ruotsi, Estonian Rootsi, and the same root that gave 'Rus' to Slavic languages all share this origin.

Examples: Ruotsi, Rootsi, Rootsi

İsveç / Turkic-Arabic family

Names grouped as likely derived through Ottoman Turkish İsveç (ultimately from a Romance/Latin Suecia form), which became the standard in Turkic, Arabic, Persian, and related languages across West Asia and Central Asia.

Examples: İsveç, السويد, سوئد, Isvec
