The United States of America is a country located in North America, made up of 50 states bound together in a union. They each hold jurisdiction over their geographic territory, and yet they also share their sovereignty with the federal government of the United States.
As with everything which has a name, the 50 states' names were inspired by different things. Some of the names, like Alabama and Alaska, were named by the indigenous people who first lived there, while states like Colorado and Connecticut were named after mountains and rivers found there. Still others are named for places in Europe, such as New York for York in England.
When it comes to choosing names for both babies and pets, many people find inspiration in very unlike things and places. Some of those things are the 50 states of America. There are some people who have named their children after these states - some of the more popular ones being Alaska, Montana, Georgia, Dakota, Virginia, Louisiana and Carolina.
If you had a name which was made up of two states, what would it be? Would it be of one of the states you have visited or even the state you are from? Would you also share some of the personality traits of the people who live in that state? Take this quiz if you would like to find out!
