St. Lucia being the only country named after a woman isn't entirely accurate, as Ireland is the anglicization of the actual name of the prehistoric Indigenous name of the island Eire, derived from Eiru, the female goddess.

India is right answer too, origin from Sindhu (Indus River, ‘great stream’). Most Indian rivers bear feminine names/personifications as goddesses (Ganga, Yamuna, Godavari…) as nurturing mothers in Sanskrit ‘nadi’. Rivers as divine women run deep in Indic culture. 🌊🛕 #Etymology

France is a womm’s name!
