Suure-Rootsi is a village in Saaremaa Parish, Saare County in western Estonia.
==Name== Suure-Rootsi was attested in historical sources as Groß Rotzeküll in 1788, Rotzi gros in 1798, Gross Rotzküll in 1811, and Сууре Роотси (Suuree Rootsi) in 1903. The name of the village literally means 'big Swedish (village)', semantically contrasting with neighboring Väike-Rootsi, literally 'little Swedish (village)'. Both villages are named after their historical Swedish population.
