The [[Codexian]] name "Norvian" comes from the Marenian name '''Nordven''', in the Fortunan language spelled '''Nordviano''', and roughly translates to "Northern sailor". Early Norvians would not refer to themselves as such until the around 100 BCE based on the titles given to them by other Marenian groups and Novarian natives. Codexian states would adopt a similar name entering into the Common Era, solidifying the title of Norvian as the Codex Empire formed and grew into strength.
