Colombia

  Ultimately both commemorate Columbus (Cristoforo Colombo and/or Christophorus Columbus respectively).

  Hey, thank you for the note. I just bought an iPhone and the autocorrect turns lowercase “colombia” into “columbia.” It does the opposite for cased versions of both words (Columbia -> Colombia). Either way, both spellings come from the same person (Christopher Columbus/Cristoforo Colombo).
