The name "England" is derived from the Angles, a Germanic tribe who settled in the region during the 5th and 6th centuries.
The Angles were one of several Germanic tribes, including the Saxons and Jutes, who migrated to Britain after the Roman Empire withdrew in the 5th century.
The Angles settled in the eastern and northern parts of Britain, eventually establishing a kingdom known as Angle-land, which later evolved into "England."
The name "England" first appeared in written records in the 9th century, though it was not until the 10th century that it became the dominant name for the entire country.
The name "England" is therefore not attributed to a single individual, but rather to the collective presence and influence of the Angles.
