There is no surviving myth about the creation of all of Denmark, but there is a story about the creation of Zealand:
The goddess Gefjun visited Gylfi, the king of Sweden, in disguise. She entertained the king, who decided to give her all the land she could plough in one day as a reward. She transformed her four sons(with an unnamed jotun) into oxen and ploughed so deep that it uprooted the land. The oxen dragged it into the ocean and became an island, and Gefjun named it Zealand. Where the land was in Sweden became a lake called Malaren.
