The surname is from place names. According to Heikkilä (2012), the name of the river came first, and the geographical term fi neva is abstracted from the former. He argues that the name of the river would be borrowed from Pre-gem und *Newā (< ine-pro *néwos *néweh₂ new, compare sv ny, en new), in reference to a 'new' river which only came into existence around 1350–1300 BC due to glacial rebound; Heikkilä also connects Samic words (se njavvi) into this etymology by arguing that they were borrowed from Early Proto-Finnic urj-fin-pro *Nëva.Heikkilä, Mikko: On the Innovations in Early Proto-Finnic Vocalism and Phonotactics and their Dates (2012). pp. 22–24 Kallio (2018), however, disputes this, as there does not appear to be any toponymic evidence for Germanic or Indo-European presence in the region prior to the 8th century AD, and the distribution of the Finnic urj-fin-pro *nëva appears too broad to argue that it could derive from the name of the river; he argues that the name derives from urj-fin-pro *nëva fen, swamp and originally referred to Lake Ladoga (and was later also applied to the river).Kallio, Petri: Muinaiskarjalan uralilainen tausta (2018). p. 8 Pronunciation Proper noun fi river c/Russia Neva fi Nevajoki fi Finnish Declension Nev a Derived terms fi compounds Nevajärvi Nevanlahti Nevanlinna Related terms fi neva Statistics dvv_20250813 167 References Anagrams fi aenv vena Italian it: Etymology it :uder ru:Нева́ From it ru Нева́.
