How did Utah get its name and nickname?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) did not give Utah it's name. They wanted the state to be called "Deseret", but the United States government chose to call it "Utah" after the Ute Indians instead.
Legend has it that the Mormons were okay with that name because "Utah" in Ute means 'top of the mountains', and Mormons believe that them settling in the area was a fulfillment of Isaiah's prophesy that "it shall come to pass in the last days, [that] the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains" (Isaiah 2:2)

Why was Salt Lake City chosen Utah's capital?
The Mormon pioneers actually chose to settle in Ohio. When they were kicked out due to persecution, they chose Missouri. When they were kicked out of there due to an extermination order by the governor, they chose Illinois. When the Illinois governor asked them to leave, Joseph Smith told them they would finally find freedom to worship in the Rocky Mountains, where there was nobody to persecute them or kick them out. After Joseph's murder, Brigham Young lead a group of Church members to find their Rocky Mountain refuge. Brigham supposedly saw the valley and the temple that would be built there in a dream. After coming over a ridge and seeing the Salt Lake Valley, he said "This is the right place, drive on!". Salt Lake City has been the headquarters of the Church since that time.
Salt Lake City is the capital in Utah.
What is the folklore behind the Bridal Veil Falls in Utah?
I think that it has something to do with MT. Timpanogas, and the Indian Story. Apparently a young Indian woman was forced to marry, or her groom died, or something (I forget the details) and so she jumped from the cliffs on her wedding day. And they say her spirit still lives on in the canyon. So I think it is Bridal Veil Falls for that reason, at least that is what I remember hearing a long ime ago when I was little.
