Noteable users of alternative names is the nation of Truidencia who uses the name "kova" as their official name for the continent. The name is derived from the word "Chuowa" which originates and is used in Gensokyo, but which has also been used by citizens of Danzilona on occasion. A line of railway bears the name.
