The term "Ynglism" refers to the [[Ynglings]], one of the early [[Germanic king|Germanic royal families]], whom Ynglists believe to be descendants of the [[Aryan race]] who originated from the [[Omsk Oblast|Omsk region]] of [[Western Siberia]], Russia. This narrative runs contrary to the [[Proto-Indo-European homeland|leading scholarly consensus]] of the homeland of the historical [[Proto-Indo-Europeans]].{{sfnm|1a1=Aitamurto|1y=2016|1p=50|2a1=Shnirelman|2y=2017b|2p=89}} According to the Ynglists, the term has cosmological significance,{{sfn|Aitamurto|2016|p=50}} referring to the order of the universe carried by the primordial fiery radiance — the ''Ynglia'', personified as ''Yngly'' — emanated by the supreme God, ''Ra-M-Kha''.{{sfn|Golovneva|2018|p=341}}<ref name="Derzhavarus-Ra-M-Kha">{{cite web|title=Рамха |trans-title=Ra-M-Kha |url=http://derzhavarus.ru/ra-m-ha.html |website=Derzhava Rus |date=25 March 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170626203020/http://derzhavarus.ru/ra-m-ha.html |archive-date=26 June 2017}}</ref> They also call their religion "Orthodoxy" and "Old Belief".{{sfn|Aitamurto|2016|pp=50–51}}

According to Ynglist history and terminology, the Slavic term for "Orthodoxy", ''Pravoslavie'' (Православие, that like the Greek counterpart precisely means "right honouring", or "honouring" [''slavit'''] the "truth, order" [''Prav'']{{sfn|Golovneva|2018|p=341}}), is older than Christianity.{{sfn|Golovneva|2018|p=341}} The term, which means the right way of living in accordance with the law of the universe, was appropriated by [[Eastern Orthodox Christianity]] among the Slavs only by the 17th century, through the reforms of [[Patriarch Nikon of Moscow]], in order to wholly absorb the indigenous religion which was then still prevalent among the population.<ref name="Derzhavarus-Belovodye">{{cite web|title=Беловодье – древняя прародина Ариев и Славян |trans-title=Belovodye – the ancestral home of the Aryans and the Slavs |url=http://derzhavarus.ru/belovodje-prarodina-ariev-slavyan.html |website=Derzhava Rus |date=19 March 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170703182410/http://derzhavarus.ru/belovodje-prarodina-ariev-slavyan.html |archive-date=3 July 2017}}</ref> Prior to the reform, Christianity used the Greek-based loanword ''Ortodoksalnost'' (Ортодоксальность).<ref name="Derzhavarus-Belovodye"/> The term "Russian" and related ones would derive instead from the Aryan root ''ros'' (рос), referring to "brightness" and "holiness".{{sfn|Gaidukov|2000|p=85}}

The definition "[[Old Believers]]" (Староверы, ''Starovery''), which today is employed to refer to Christians who preserved pre-Nikonian rituals, who are more correctly called the "Old Ritualists" (Старообрядцы, ''Staroobryadtsy''), was imposed on the latter during the same Nikonian reform.<ref name="Derzhavarus-Belovodye"/> Their previous name was "Righteous Christians" (Праведные Христиане, ''Pravednye Khristiane''), and "Old Believers" referred instead to indigenous Slavic religion.<ref name="Derzhavarus-Belovodye"/> According to the Ynglists, these theories would be proven by 13th-century documents preserved by a sect of the Christian Old Believers.<ref name="Derzhavarus-Belovodye"/>
