I am new to Bodhi and am trying to remove Chromium but every time I issue either sudo apt remove chromium or sudo apt purge chromium (it doesn't matter if I use chromium, chromium-browser, or chromium-web-browser) I get the following return message:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package 'chromium-browser' is not installed, so not removed
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.

However, chromium is still showing on my apps and when I click the icon chromium starts.

chromium is the name of debian's package, and chromium-browser was ubuntu's package that hasn't been offered since Bodhi 5.x/Ubuntu 18.x; Bodhi's chromium package is called bodhi-chromium. Not familiar with chromium-web-browser; can always run 'apt search chromium' to see some relevant package names available in configured repositories, or more specifically 'apt list --installed|grep chromium' to see which chromium package you have installed.

I did not know that the package for chromium in Bodhi was called bodhi-chromium. Once I you gave me the proper name Chromium was removed. Thanks again.
