China in Mandarin is pronunced "zhong guo", where "zhong" means the center and "guo" country. Early Chinese believed that China was the center of civilization. The word China could be derived from chine meaning silk in French.Or it may come from Cina in Indian.
China got its name from the great emperor Qin(pronounced chin) Shihuangdi, responsible for building the Great Wall of China. In some languages it is pronounced China, but in others, it is pronounced Chin, or Sin.
By the famous song writer
china had 9 kingdoms and was conquer by the qin kingdom...the last place he conquer was the heart of china where it was called middle kingdom.

qin was later translated into chin dynasty and that's how china got its name.
