Following up, could instances where they are named after a region/nation in a setting where that normally isn't the case simply qualify as Named After Their Planet? I hesitate to list it there as an example though because every example there is about a planet (or other celestial body).
Is anyone aware of a trope that is essentially Named After Their Planet, but specific to a region or nation instead of a planet?
Note - While I get that the people of a nation are more logically referred to by the nation's name (Canadians, Russians, Germans, etc.) in the particular setting I'm asking for, this practice is not common.
