Exonym And Endonym
An endonym (from Greek: , 'inner' + , 'name'; also known as autonym) is a common, ''native'' name for a geographical place, group of people, individual person, language or dialect, meaning that it is used inside that particular place, group, or linguistic community in question; it is their self-designated name for themselves, their homeland, or their language. An exonym (from Greek: , 'outer' + , 'name'; also known as xenonym) is an established, ''non-native'' name for a geographical place, group of people, individual person, language or dialect, meaning that it is used only outside that particular place, group, or linguistic community.

Norwegian Exonyms
As a general rule, modern Norwegian does not use exonyms for names with endonyms in Latin script. Historically, several Danish/German exonyms have been in use, due to the Danish roots of the Bokmål variety of Norwegian, but these exonyms should be considered archaic, and are no longer used officially. Albania Austria Belgium Cuba Denmark Places in Denmark are in Norway spelled like in Danish. Also, for places with ''Aa'', which during the latter half of the 20th century were spelled ''Å'' in Denmark, and then changed back to ''aa''. Thus, Aabenraa and some more places are spelled with ''aa'' also in Norway. The same sound is spelled ''Å'' for places in Norway. Estonia Finland Until recently, most people tended to use the official Swedish names in Norwegian.
