Hi, in French language we can use both "Hollande" (pronounced Holland) and "Pays-bas" to refer to the country. Interesting isn't it ?
Le mot "Hollande" est souvent employé pour désigner les Pays-Bas en langue parlée (même chose en anglais et en allemand). Tu peux l'utiliser, mais cela reste incorrect - même en français.
Même chose avec "Royaume-Uni" et "Angleterre": "Angleterre" est souvent (mais faussement) employé pour désigner le "Royaume-Uni".

Native English speaker here. We call the country "Holland". We also use "The Netherlands", but I'm seeing that used more now than I did when I was growing up. Until I was an adult, I only heard "Holland". English is not the only language that calls "Nederland" "Holland", or a variation there of.
