Björneborg

== Swedish == === Etymology === Superficially derived from björn (“bear”) and borg (“(fortified) castle or city”). There are multiple theories about this name, including that it derives from björna (“to dun (a debt)”), (folk-etymologically) from bära (“to bear”) (in uppbära (“to levy (a tax)”); assuming the name developed from Bärnäs to *Björnnäs), from the male given name Björn, or that it is a reference to the coat of arms (although this is unlikely, as it is unlikely to be older than the name). === Proper noun === Björneborg Pori (a city in Satakunta, Finland) === References ===
