No state was called that by any native Americans - they did not understand the concept of dividing the land into states with invisible boundaries.

You are thinking of the place-name meaning "at the long river" in Natick - this name was only applied to a small area, not to the state. It was English people (then the Americans) who took this name and corrupted it into Connecticut.
