The name "Sweden" derives from the Old English word "Swēoþeod," which means "the people of the Swedes." This term is linked to the early Germanic tribe known as the Swedes, who inhabited the region. The name has evolved over time, reflecting the cultural and linguistic influences in the area. Ultimately, it became associated with the kingdom that emerged in the region during the Middle Ages.
