That's what someone told me, and it sounds reasonable. But I can't find the name in any of my books nor on all those websites. Can anybody confirm this piece of information?

I've seen Nilas as a Saami form of Nils.

Nilas is listed as a derivation from Nicolas in one of my Norwegian namen books.

I've never heard of Nilas, the Swedish form of Nicholas is Niklas.
