The answer is: Amerigo Vespucci.

Amerigo Vespucci was an Italian explorer and cartographer, and later became a Castilla citizen. He also participated in voyages for the Castilian and Portuguese crowns. Besides, he explained how Columbus's new discovered land was not part of Asia, but a separate continent. As a result, the New World was called after him.
