Best Answer

Washington D.C. is the nick name for The District of Columbia, Washington state is the northwestern most state in the continental US. The irony is that originally when Washington applied for statehood, they wanted to call it Columbia, but it was turned down because lawmakers thought it would be confused with The District of Columbia.
