The first time Norway is mentioned with a name in historical sources, it was still an undefined area. When the chieftain and explorer Ottar met the king of England in the 9th century, his story of the homeland was written down. He calls it Norðvegr, which is directly translated to "north way", not so far from "Norway". Here, the word has evolved into "Noreg", and I suppose that the Dano-Norwegian "Norge" is the Danish version.
There's been a population in Norway for at least 11000 years. They probably came from Doggerland, an area between the UK and Norway, now submerged in the North Sea.
Norway has had a name since around the 9th century (early viking period) when it was called Norðrvegr.
