The first half of this sentence: "It takes a few branches of Vistula, notably Nogat and Pregolya rivers and is connected to Gdańsk Bay by the Strait of Baltiysk." doesn't make sense.
So, was it actually originally named Friesisches Haff? Because later in the article it mentions a Latin name including recens (fresh, as in unsalty), likening it to the modern Frisches Haff, as they mean the same thing (frisch and recens). But if it is true that the current German name is a truncation or some other derivation of Friesisches Haff, then the correlation is purely co-incidental.

I've moved the citation needed text added to the Etymology section here to this page:
a) ''Estmere'' being a rendition of ''Aistinmari''
b) For the existince of Old Prussian ''Aistinmari''
Because:
a) Per [https://bosworthtoller.com/9741 Bosworth-Toller, ''Ést-mere''] it's rather ''east'' and ''sea, mere'' ([https://www.dictionary.com/browse/mere dictionary.com, ''mere<sup>2</sup>''])
b) ''Aistinmari'' seems like a [[Old Prussian language#Revitalization|Neo-Prussian]] protologism, cp. the source: "Klussis, Mikkels (2006). ''Dictionary of revived Prussian''"
