What was the ancient name of France?

Francia
Germania
Frons
Gaul
Before being named France, the land was called Gaul (Latin: Gallia). This name continued to be used even after the beginning of the reign of the Franks' Kings Clovis I, Charles Martel, Pepin the Short, and Charlemagne. In fact, for as long as the cultural elites of Europe used Latin predominantly, the name Gallia continued to be used alongside the name France.
