Norway has two official names: Norge in Bokmål and Noreg in Nynorsk. The English name Norway comes from the Old English word Norþweg mentioned in 880, meaning "northern way" or "way leading to the north", which is how the Anglo-Saxons referred to the coastline of Atlantic Norway[1][2][3] similar to leading theory about the origin of the Norwegian language name.[4] The Anglo-Saxons of Britain also referred to the kingdom of Norway in 880 as Norðmanna land.[1][2]
