I need to change the name of country in magento store e.g. United Kingdom needs to be changed to Great Britain. How can I achieve this?



I tried looking at the following tables directory_country_region, directory_country_region_name, directory_country but country full names are not stored here.



I also tried using locale files to see if it updates, but no luck there as well.



Is there any way I can achieve this?

The easiest way for changing the label is by translation.



You need to just make i18N folder in your app/code/namespace/modulename/i18n and just create one CSV file en_US.csv and give translation script over there.



See Example : en_US.csv

"United Kingdom","Great Britain"


No need to do anything for the small change.

I don't know where exactly you'd want to change the country name, but the country names in Magento come from the Zend framework.



In Zend they are stored in locale file, for example in




/vendor/magento/zendframework1/library/Zend/Locale/Data/en_GB.xml




<territories>
<territory type="GB">United Kingdom</territory>
<territory type="GB" alt="short">UK</territory>
<territory type="GS">South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands</territory>
<territory type="HM">Heard Island and McDonald Islands</territory>
<territory type="UM">U.S. Minor Outlying Islands</territory>
<territory type="US">United States</territory>
<territory type="US" alt="short">US</territory>
<territory type="VC">Saint Vincent and the Grenadines</territory>
</territories>

    @Prateek which locale are you using? Maybe you have to edit the en_US.xml. Don't forget to clear all the cache, i.e. delete var/cache or clear Redis as it's not stored in one of the usual caches.
