This is the main name.You find it in 'hellenistic' , ' hellenism', 'hellenic'. Its first witnessed use in Homer's Ilias.The other name graecos to mean the citizen and Graecia to mean the country although witnessed too in Homer's Ilias never was in general use in the country itself.The name Greece and greek was an invention or better a preferred from latins name which used afterwards the european scholars of the Renaissance.We never use it to refer to the country or to its citizens.//The same love for hellenism you find allover the world to those who know where our modern civilization started and where it is based upon.Thank you so much.
