Markus Toivonen found the word in a Latin dictionary when the band were starting out and decided it was an ideal name.
Ensiferum were founded as a three-piece by Markus Toivonen, Sauli Savolainen and Kimmo Miettinen. They began mostly as a cover band before persuading Jari Mäenpää to join as vocalist and second guitarist a year later.
