Abstract: L-isem Sliema jaf l-oriġini tiegħu lil knisja żgħira li kienet tinsab fi spazju miftuħ viċin il-post fuq imsemmi, fuq il-ponta tal-blat li kienet titfaċċa fuq il-port ta' Marsamxett. Oriġinarjament dik il-lokalità kienet magħrufa bħala Qortin (nei limiti di B'Kara) li jfisser art li tħares fuq il-baħar. Jinsab dokumentat li fl- 1616 il-kappella kienet magħrufa bħala Santa Maria tal-Kortin iżda fl-1659 kienet ġiet ipprofanata. Wara li nbniet mill-ġdid bdiet tkun magħrufa taħt it-titlu tat-Twelid tal-Verġni Marija sakemm fil-viżta pastorali tal-isqof Labini fl-1784 bdiet tissejjaħ Ecclasiae Salutis ta' Sliema.
