Hindu is Persian for Sindhu, the name for the Indus River in ancient Sanskrit. Thus, 'Hindustan' is 'the land beyond the Indus'. When the Vishva Hindu Parishad, in 2003, demanded India's name to be changed to 'Hindustan', it was 'Hindusthan' they spoke of, instead of the former.

Answer:

The name "India" is originally derived from the name of the river Sindhu (Indus River) and has been in use in Greek since Herodotus (4th century BCE). The term appeared in Old English as early the 9th century and reemerged in Modern English in the 17th century.
