If you were to name your baby after a country, which country would you choose?

Question

Just for fun, if you had to name your baby after a country, which country would it be? Cities aren't allowed, but territories are, and the name of a country in another language is also allowed.

My answers would be:

For a girl: Canada, Inglaterra [England in Spanish], or Moldova.

For a boy: Gibraltar, Finland, or Morocco.

Answer 1

I'd have to go for Canada.  I don't really like many country name - Canada seems as good as any.  And it's my country, I do love it dearly.  If I had to use a country name it had better have some MEANING for me.

Georgia, while a seriously messed up country, is a rather pretty name.

girl: Georgia or Canada.  Lucia (from the Caribbean St. Lucia).

boy: Canuck (it's a term for Canadian) or Finland.  Maybe Norway.  Israel.

If I'm allowed to choose antiquated names, then I'll go with:

Girl:  Illyria (the old name for Albania and its surroundings)

If I have to choose current names, I think any of these would be decent:

Girl:  India, Andorra, Dominica, Guyana, Mali, Syria, Sierra Leone, Zaire

Boy:  Belarus, Benin, Chad, Israel, Jordan, Qatar

I'd probably pick Israel and Andorra.

For a girl

Mercia, Dacia (those don't exist anymore, but they used to be countries), Dominica, Cierra Leona (Sierra Leone), Ossetia (South Ossetia), Cyprus,  Andorra.
