In Norway it is called a 'fjord'. Sometimes this is spelled 'fiord'. Geographers have another term, 'ria', which includes bigger inlets and those which were not formed by glaciation. There is some confusion about usage of the words, so you might like to refer to 'ria' on Wikipedia for a full explanation.
