Etymology
Possibly from fi *Pöytäjoki as a river name, from fi pöytä table + fi joki river. The current form would be through the inflected forms: fi *Pöytäjoella → fi *Pöytjoella → fi *Pöytyällä. The fi pöytä table likely refers to the bog (from which the river flows) that is 'as flat as the surface of a table'.
