No, Nunavut was not going to be called Bob. The name "Nunavut," meaning "our land" in Inuktitut, was chosen to reflect the Inuit heritage and culture of the region when it became a territory in 1999. The name change was part of a broader effort to acknowledge Indigenous identity and governance following land claims agreements. The suggestion of “Bob” is likely a humorous or fictional idea rather than a serious proposal.
