Davik
Davik is a former municipality in the traditional district of Nordfjord in Sogn og Fjordane county, Norway. The former municipality existed from 1838 until 1964. It encompassed all the lands surrounding the outer part of the large Nordfjorden on both sides of the fjord. Davik was located in parts of the present-day municipalities of Vågsøy, Bremanger, and Eid. The administrative center of the former municipality was the village of Davik which is located on the southern shore of the Nordfjorden, although some of the municipal services were based out of the village of Bryggja on the north side of the fjord, since that village was the largest village in Davik municipality.
Davik Church was the main church for the municipality, and it was located in the village of Davik, in the central part of the municipality. Rugsund Church (in the village of Rugsund) served the western part of the municipality and Ålfoten Church (in the village of Ålfoten) served the eastern part of the municipality.
==Name==
The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the old ''Davik'' farm (Old Norse: ''Dafvíkr''), since the church (Davik Church) was located there. The first element (Old Norse: ''dafi'') means "spear" and the last element (Old Norse: ''víkr'') is identical with the word ''vik'' which means "inlet", so the name appears to be referring to the long, skinny spear-like shape of the local fjord. Historically, the municipal name was spelled ''Davigen'' or ''Davig'', using the old spelling forms that have changed over time.
