What was the angolas name before colonisation and what did it change to?

Before colonization, Angola was known as the Kingdom of Ndongo and the Kingdom of Kongo, among other regional entities. Following Portuguese colonization in the late 15th century, it became known as Angola, derived from the title of the Ndongo king, Ngola. The name was officially adopted during the Portuguese colonial period and persisted after Angola gained independence in 1975.
