Potential names for a Zhuang state

Either via much earlier PODs or in a later scenario where French Indochina expands into Guangxi province with the Zhuang later establishing a state after WW2 (that possibly includes other Tai parts of Northern Vietnam such as Tonkin), what is the likely name the Zhuang would give to their state?
 
Would this be a Zhuang-majority state?

Yeah, though also including other Tai groups in northern Vietnam.

Could pull a Belgium and name their state Nanyue or the Zhuang language equivalent.

Namzyied does not roll off the tongue, Nong Zhigao managed to set up a few short-lived kingdoms such as Dali Guo though that does not roll off the tongue either.

The Zhuang call themselves Bouxcuengh and Guangxi as Gvangjsih, though perhaps the Zhuang abbreviation of the region being Gvei (coming from the name of the city of Guilin) is relatively workable.
