Before being referred to as the North Sea, the body of water was historically known as the "German Sea" or "Saxon Sea" in various ancient texts. The name "North Sea" emerged later, particularly in Middle English, to distinguish it from the other seas surrounding the British Isles. The term reflects its geographic position relative to the British Isles and the mainland of Europe.
