The name of the country is Myanmar. If you want to be picky, the Union of Myanmar.
The language is Burmese.
I know Bush insists on calling it Burma to score a point off them, but if they call themselves Myanmar, the least we can do is respect that.
Why the President of the USA is trying to scope points off a small Southeast Asian country I will leave as an exercise to the reader.

According to Wikipedia, some Western governments don’t recognize the military government… and therefore continue to use “Burma”.
And even if you do call it Myanmar… What do you call people from that country? Myanmarese? Myanmarians? Myanmarites?

The military junta that runs the place calls it Myanmar. The majority of the residents call it Burma.
