There are several versions of the origin of the name Königsberg. The most common version associates the name of the fortress Königsberg, meaning "King's Mountain," with King Ottokar II. According to this version, the fortress and the future city were named in honor of the King of Bohemia. Other versions of the toponym's origin link it to the Vikings or the Prussians. It is possible that "Königsberg" is a form of "Konungoberg," where "konung," "kunnigs" means "prince," "chieftain," "head of a clan," and the word "berg" can mean both "mountain" and "steep, high shore." In Russian chronicles and maps until the end of the 17th century, instead of the name Königsberg, the toponym Korolevets was used.
