Has Libya been called a different name?
The ancient name Libya originally denoted the whole of North Africa west of the Nile and all the way to the Atlantic coast. And then the Greeks used it to refer to the whole of Africa, before it was named Africa by the Romans.
However, the name Libya came to be used for the political country we know now around 1934 by the Italians.
Then on the 24th of December 1951 Libya was declared as the United Kingdom of Libya by the British, who installed king Idris.
Then on the 1st of September 1969 Colonel Mua'mmar al-Qaddafi renamed,
first: Aljamhouriyah Alarabiyyah Allibiyyah (Libyan Arab Republic),
then: the Great Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya - which is still current.

How dangerous and strong are al-Gaddafi's 40 female bodyguards and soldiers?
The Amazonian Guard (Gadaffi's hand-picked female guards) were likely as dangerous as typical bodyguards that warlords have. The Amazonian recruiters gave out a special training to interested volunteers and those who could resist the tough training were then trained in firearms and martial arts. The final selection was made by Gaddafi himself. So, it was not strictly a beauty pageant.
Contrary to the Community Answer below, Gadaffi certainly did have female bodyguards as discussed in the news article here.
