Here is what i found on google. They are too many webpages for me to list them all...here is the few that i liked. In this little discussion board, they said the romans coined the word. But in another one that i just visited they said it was the Greeks that invented the word. And you asked why its called Africa? According to the same forum----Aphrika is a greek word which means, always hot and warm.
