The name ''Scania'' for SkĂ„ne is particularly common in English. Some English [[exonym]]s and spellings, such as ''the Dales'' for Dalarna, ''East Gothland'' for Ăstergötland, ''Swedish Lapland'' for Lapland and ''West Bothnia'' for VĂ€sterbotten, are also found in English literature.<ref>[[Eric Linklater]] in ''The Life of Charles XII'' (1960)</ref><ref>[[Robert Nisbet Bain]] in ''Gustavus III and His Contemporaries'' (1894)</ref><ref>[[Bernard Quaritch]] in ''The stories of the Kings of Norway Called the Round World (Heimskringla)'' (1893)</ref>
