Where this word comes from

Borrowed from Danish Grækenland (“Greece”). The Danish name combines græker (“Greek person”) and land (“land”), with its form influenced by German Griechenland (“Greece”), itself from Grieche (“Greek person”) + Land (“land”), literally “land of the Greeks”. Compare Norwegian Nynorsk Grekland, Swedish Grekland, Low German Grekenland, Dutch Griekenland, West Frisian Grikelân and Icelandic Grikkland (“Greece”). Compare also Old Norse Grikkland (“Byzantium”).
