The term "New Jersey" was chosen to differentiate it from the original Jersey, an island in the English Channel. When the territory was established in the 17th century, it was named after Sir George Carteret, who was the governor of the island of Jersey. The "New" signifies its status as a new settlement rather than an indication of age, so it wouldn't be appropriate to call it "Old Jersey." Hence, it retains the name "New Jersey" to reflect its origins.
