The United States renamed the Gulf of Mexico. After we purchase Greenland, what should its new name be?

“Jefferson Territory” to “Colorado” (mostly...also included parts of present-day Utah, Wyoming, and Nebraska).

I'd say Whiteland because of all the snow and ice that's seen from space, but I don't think that would go over very well.

The name “Deseret” was unofficial and primarily used by the LDS, frankly.

Maybe so, but that is a pretty dang big percentage of the folks living there at the time.

The click sounds are in the so-called Khoisan languages of southern Africa (spoken by the people formerly called Bushmen and by the people formerly called Hottentots). Some of the Bantu languages may have picked up some of the sounds.

It already has an alternative name: Kalaallit Nunaat (from the Inuit or Eskimo language).

The opinion of the locals there does not matter? This should respectfully be up to them not us.
