From their very origins then, Philippines and Filipino are colonial names, and as such, are contradictory to the term nationalism. Simply on the basis of the colonial roots of Philippines, it can already be argued that the country’s name should be changed. Indeed, many former colonies have discarded their colonial appellations and adopted titles that are of more indigenous or un–colonial derivation: Burkina Faso, Namibia, Sri Lanka, Uruguay, Vanuatu and Zimbabwe.

I totally agree but chaging 9 centuries of colonial and Western way is a challenge.
I think this is an interesting proposal.
