The U.S. Virgin Islands, but the name came through the British Virgin Islands.

But various of these islands have been run by the British, the Danish, the
Dutch, the French, the Spanish, the Americans, and even the Knights of Malta at
various times since 1493. (Hey, at least each individual island had no more than
one ruler at a given time. Hispaniola and St. Martin are split down the middle.)
