There's no reason to state they wouldn't be named Gilnean. You can be from a region and still be part of something else. I'm an American but I'm also a New Yorker because that's where I'm from. We've nothing that states Gilneas had no people. It likely did given the fact that I highly doubt -every single- human was in what is now the Arathi Highlands. The name Alterac Mountains seems to have also been already in possession of its name prior to the establishment of the city state of Alterac. There's no reason to say that Gilneas couldn't have had the name prior as well, given that we're at a loss for if that was the case. In addition, its establishment as one of the first city states infers that people were either interested/already in the region. You don't just pop up a city state without there being people there.
