>Founded on the basis that monarchy is bad
>Country literally named after a Hungarian prince
America > Amerigo Vespucci > St. Americus > Imre
This country's name is basically "the United States of This Medieval Prince"

True that. Still, looking at the source you provided, it doesn't seem that Imre himself was named after any particular Germanic figure or deity. That makes him the first distinct personality in America's name chain.

The continent was already called America.
They lived on America
They were united states who lived on America.
How they came up with the name isn't rocket science.
