Since I haven't found anything on this topic so far, I decided to open a new thread for this.

Under the premise that a company/colonial charter is given out for developing the area north of Transvaal at some point from 1850 onwards, decades before it was done in OTL, what could this territory possibly be named? And considering that Rhodes was out of question in this scenario, who could even serve as an earlier equivalent to him?
