Who named new zealand?

Abel Tasman named the land Staten Landt, as it was thought to be connected to South America. Cook's voyages and surveying corrected that, and subsequently it was shown on Dutch maps as Nova Zeeland (literally new sea-land) after a province of the Netherlands. This was translated to New Zealand on the British Admiralty charts.Some argue that the original Dutch spelling should prevail, but in that case all the native names of e.g. foreign capitals would be spelt in their mother tongue. Not a proposition likely to attract wide support.The accepted Maori name for the country is Aotearoa - 'land of the long white cloud'.
