To my knowledge (that is, a couple YouTube videos on the topic, this could be outdated/false information), there are some people who aren’t happy that the U.S. names itself after the continent of America (implying that they have a right to all of America, manifest destiny to the max). Whether that is true or not, naming stuff is always fun, so what is a good name that is representative of what the U.S. is?

My personal suggestions:

  • The Liberty States
  • since Argentina is the only country named after an element (silver), why not another? Perhaps the U.S. could be named after gold, after the Gold Rush which I think was a big thing? That or an element that can be red, white, and blue. Speaking of…
  • The Republic of Red, White, and Blue

Please assume that stale carrot man isn’t in office and that the U.S. is currently being a reasonable and humane country that actually stands for democracy, liberty, and freedom.

    Could go all KFC and just make the full offical name be “USA”.

    I’d like something original. Something that captures the spirit of the country. Something like “Glorificia” maybe.
