They do have a sovereign right to decide on an internationally-accepted name, and if they happen to want to steal the name of some older country, it's still correct to refer to them by the stolen name. Compare, for instance, to the Holy Roman (read: German) Empire. There are other examples of such name-theft throughout history, I'm sure.

Macedonian adj.
  1. Being or pertaining to the Hellenized state of ancient Macedon or its inhabitants.
  2. Being or pertaining to the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia or its inhabitants.
Well I could start a debate of countless thread pages about the fact that Makedonia was Hellenic and wasnt hellenised but its pointless...
Its a name of a part of Hellas that is been called Makedonia since the Antiquity, what right have anyone to name their country after a BORDERING country's province is beyond me...
Its sad to face the truth but the Skopjian state has gone since its creation in a propaganda frenzy claiming decendant from Alexander and Phillip, and dreaming of liberation of the "enslaved", by the evil Greeks, Makedonians:

20 Years ago if one stated that Ancient Makedonians werent Hellenic everybody would laugh, now since the geopolitical scene at the Balkans has changed these claims are taken seriously...
No matter if USA recognise Skopije or no matter how much money George Soros pumps into that state it wont make their claims true or rightful.
I feel that my silence in face of shameless propaganda and the offshots off propaganda would be against my concience...
