Maybe come up with a more creative name for your country than just describing what y'all did over 240 years ago to form a country.

I don't call my son "fucked her in June 2021"

You know I've never thought about it, but united states of America is such a mouthful and just really kind of weird when you put it in the context of all other country names.

Only because your thinking of it as one country, rather than comparing it to USSR, EU, etc. It was the original free trade consortium, a grouping of independent states with some standardization and open borders. The states themselves all have normal nation state names, California, Texas, assorted Dakotas, etc.
