There is no connection other than coincidence between the names of New Zealand, the country, and Zealand, the island in Denmark.
New Zealand was the name given to the land (that later became the country New Zealand) by Abel Tasman, who was an explorer from the Netherlands. He was the first European to record its existence. He named it after the province Zeeland in the Netherlands. The spelling was at some point changed to Zealand, which is an anglicized version of the province's name.
