The Romans called it Mare Nostrum (Latin, 'Our Sea'). Occasionally it was known as Mare Internum. The Bible refers to it as the 'Great Sea', and also the 'Hinder Sea', which was sometimes translated as the 'Western Sea'.

In Hebrew it is known as HaYyam HaTtikhon, which translates to the 'Middle Sea'. In Arabic, it is known as the 'White Middle Sea'.
