In Finnish, Finland is called Suomi.
This name is derived from the word for ‘land’ (‘maa’ in Finnish), and its origins can be traced back to the early inhabitants of the region. The term ‘Suomi’ reflects the country’s connection to its natural landscape and cultural identity. It’s interesting to note that while many countries have different names in their native languages, ‘Suomi’ is quite distinctive and showcases Finland’s unique language and heritage.
