Why Greeks aren't called "Greeks" in Greek 🇬🇷

The Greek word for "Greek" isn't related to the term used in various Western European languages: greco, griego, grec — why are these so different from the Greek word for "Greeks": Hellenes. Do any other languages use the "Hellenic" root? What languages use neither? And why is it we don't use the "Hellenic" term in these languages? Is it a vast conspiracy against the Greeks?
