    The zone does not need to be named as suggested and should not as there will be only one Elsweyr when this new zone hit live.

    There is already precedence for the new Zone to be named Elsweyr and only Elsweyr. That is Craglorn.

    The original Craglorn zone was not called South Craglorn as it was the only Craglorn in the game at the time so it would not have made sense, just as the idea suggested in the OP would not make sense.
    From a technical sense this would work too, but that means that everything that is currently called Northern Elsweyr needs to be changed to just Elsweyr. The final name, whether it is Elsweyr, Northern Elsweyr, or Anequina, is technically irrelevant as long as it's the same everywhere, which it currently isn't.

    Your Craglorn example is not equivalent though - Craglorn is one zone that was released in two stages; Northern Elsweyr is one zone by itself, and if Southern Elsweyr is going to exist, that will be a second zone, not part of the current Northern Elsweyr zone.

    I agree with this 100%, especially since they advertise the zone in game as "Northern Elsweyr" and the Skyshards in the crown store as "northern Elsweyr". The next DLC is most likely Southern Elsweyr. If so, it is definitely misleading to name the Chapter as Elsweyr, when you technically dont get the full Elsweyr.

    Depend if the rest of elsweyr is added like upper craglorn or as a separate zone

    This is something we do not know yet so it seems premature to suggest it should be renamed.

    On your first trip to another country, you likely tell people you will be visiting that country and are likely excited for that yourself even though you likely do not have the time or budget to see much of that country at all.
