Qing emperor Jiaqing gave Vietnam (越南) its name at around 1800. The Vietnam emperor had actually wanted to call it 南越

Came across this recently.



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Vietnam
As China for centuries had referred to Đại Việt as Annam, Gia Long asked the Manchu Qing emperor to rename the country, from Annam to Nam Việt. To prevent any confusion of Gia Long's kingdom with Triệu Đà's ancient kingdom, the Manchu emperor reversed the order of the two words to Việt Nam. The name Vietnam is thus known to be used since Emperor Gia Long's reign.

Ish true.. cuz now their country's survival ish 越来越难..

南越 is southern viet. It implies China which is at its north is northern viet. So the name is reversed.
