They called it "The Hood".

Redguard culture is very different from that of the others, and i'm not so sure about who gave the names of the continents. Tamriel has more than 10 races, who would name it to history? The Yokudans of old might have named it after some deity of war or justice. They seem to like that in Hammerfell.
