Help[Opinions] Re: Israel... (M)

It's basically like using America as a name. America's named after someone, but now it's a country plus a couple continents, and it's the places that people remember.
Israel was a place long before the 20th century. Yes, the ancient country was named after Israel the person, but even fundamentalist Christians refer to the original Israel as Jacob 99.9% of the time.
