Beskrivelse
Breim is a former municipality in Sogn og Fjordane county, Norway. It is part of the traditional district of Nordfjord in the eastern part of the present-day municipality of Gloppen. The administrative center of Borgund was the village of Reed (sometimes called Re). Breim is located to the east of Gloppen, south of Stryn and the Utvik mountains, west of the Jostedalsbreen glacier, and north of Jølster.

 The area's original name comes from the Old Norse word Breiðefni. The first element of that name comes from the old word Breiðr which means "broad" and the last element is efni which means "condition". Throughout the centuries, the name changed through misunderstandings and corruptions, and it changed to Breiheim or Breidem, where the second element of the name became like the old word -heimr meaning "home". The current name was settled upon by the 1800s.
