It's not HELLAS. it's ELLAS.No H letter. ELL (ΕΛ in greek) means land. LAS (ΛΑΣ in greek) means light.Ellas (ΕΛΛΑΣ) means the land of light.

In Georgian the word for “Greek” is “Berdzeni (ბერძენი)”, which means wise. And for Greece we say- “Saberdzneti” - the land of the wise people.

And ironically we called ourselves Romans (Romanoi) for nearly 2000 years after the Roman conquest - until the word Hellene was revived in the 19th c.

the name GREECE is also right. But the ELLAS has three meanings... 1)Land of the Light, 2)Throne of the Sun, 3)Stone enlighted

For like 1821 Greeks called themselves Rhomaioi which means Romans. That’s how the Byzantines called themselves as well.

The Chinese call the Greeks “Hellas”, 希臘. “Hei Laap” in Cantonese from which Mandarin gets the name too using the same characters “Xi la”
