Finnish
Etymology
From a Karelian vernacular form of Andreas, the name of Saint Andrew, the patron saint of the Jääski parish where the town is located.[1] Also probably partially from the (nearby) place name Anterniemi, Antrealanniemi, ultimately of the same origin (through the given name).[2] Compare the Swedish Sankt Andree (probably from a Finnish form). In Finnish towns named after individuals are often left as is. Compare the near-by Mikkeli (from St Michael), Pietari (“St Petersburg”) and Loviisa.
