An alternate terminology could be "Little Belt".

Which seems a little more plausible to me, although I can´t say why. Somebody with an English-language atlas might look this up. Kosebamse 22:53 23 May 2003 (UTC)
My two nominally English atlases only use Danish, but Google knows all - "little belt" + denmark is 10-to-1 more popular than "small belt" + denmark. So I moved it.

"Little Belt" is the form that conforms to the Danish name. Two of the Danish three Danish straits are named "Storebælt" and "Lillebælt", i.e. the Great Belt and the Little Belt. The two names go together as both of them border Funen. Valentinian T / C 11:03, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
