Pangaea got its name because Pangaea was a supercontinentthat used to exist during the late Paleozoic eras, forming about what "scientists" say three million years ago...However, the earth is only about 6,000 years old so wherever scientists got that theory from....who knows? I don't think that supercontinents are real and that there was a paleozoic era...This is what my school lesson says.....I hope someone has a better answer than this because it is far from true.

Pangaea is the name of the supercontinent that existed about 335 million years ago and eventually broke apart to form the continents we know today.
The name Pangaea was coined by Alfred Wegener, a German scientist and meteorologist, who proposed the theory of continental drift in 1912. Pangaea refers to the supercontinent that existed approximately 300 million years ago and later broke apart to form the current continents.
Wegener coined the term "Pangaea" from Ancient Greek words meaning "entire earth." He used this name to describe his hypothesis that all the continents were once connected as one supercontinent before drifting apart.
