==Etymology==
''Helsinki'' is used to refer to the city in most languages, but not in Swedish.
The Swedish name ' is the original official name of the City of Helsinki (in the very beginning, spelled ''Hellssingeforss''). The Finnish language form of the name likely originates from ''Helsinga'' and similar names used for the river that is currently known as the Vantaa River, as documented already in the 14th century. ''Helsingfors'' comes from the name of the surrounding parish, ''Helsinge'' (source for Finnish ''Helsinki'') and the rapids ((スウェーデン語:fors)), which flowed through the original village, which is now located in Vantaa. As part of the Grand Duchy of Finland in the Russian Empire, Helsinki was known as ''Gelsingfors'' – a Russian adaption of the Swedish name.
One suggestion for the origin of the name ''Helsinge'' is that it originated with medieval Swedish settlers who came from Hälsingland in Sweden. Others have proposed that the name derives from the Swedish word ''helsing'', a former version of the word ''hals'' (neck), referring to the narrowest part of the river, i.e. the rapids. Other Scandinavian cities located at similar geographic locations were given similar names at the time, such as Helsingør and Helsingborg.
The name ''Helsinki'' has been used in Finnish official documents and in Finnish language newspapers since 1819, when the Senate of Finland moved to the town. The decrees issued there were dated with Helsinki as the place of issue. This is how the form Helsinki came to be used in the Finnish literary language.
In Helsinki slang the city is nicknamed as either ''Stadi'' (from the Swedish word ''stad'', meaning "city") or ''Hesa'' (short of Helsinki), with ''Stadi'' being used to assert that the speaker is native to the city.〔〔Ristkari, Maiju: ''Heinäsorsat Helsingissä''. ''Aku Ankka'' #44/2013, introduction on page 2.〕 ' is the Northern Sami name of Helsinki.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://people.uta.fi/~km56049/same/svocab.html )
