The official name of Switzerland, in the 4 official languages is:

German: Schweizerische Eidgenossenschaft

French: Confédération suisse

Italian: Confederazione Svizzer

Romansh: Confederaziun svizra

All these translate as "Swiss Confederation".

If there is no room for all 4 versions, for example on coins or stamps, the Latin version is used for neutrality: Confoederatio Helvetica

This is also the origin of the official abbreviation: "CH", used on the internet and on road vehicle international registration plates.
