America...the entire continent was named after Amerigo Vespucci, an Italian early explorer. Check this:

"Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian merchant, explorer, and navigator from the Republic of Florence, from whose name the term "America" is derived. He became a Castillian citizen in 1505. Wikipedia"
