If I'm not mistaken, it's after the Indian peoples named the Utes?

Utah gets its name from the Navajo Indian word meaning, "yet another unreadable boring holy book".

Hmm... I will guess this one. In my world the name of Utah would have been inspired by Tweety from Warner Brothers. Tweety was passing through the land to get to Las Vegas when Tweety said , "I tawt I taw a gowden tabwet! Utaw that didn't you Gwanny?" And Utah was founded and the Mormon Religion's Joseph Smith was robbed of the golden tablets by a small yellow bird and an old lady.
