Think it's a good question, so you could limit it to "Countries which are mostly on the *African* mainland, but the capital is on an island"

If you include Greenland, then Denmark is mostly on islands and is excluded. Just switch the two.

There are actually 6 island capitals. You could try in both Africa and Asia (Egypt - Sinai Peninsula, Yemen - Socotra)

This is our source:

https://www.thenamegeek.com/first-name/georgia

Most likely mynamestats.com isn't accurate because it doesn't account for all the people named Georgia who have passed away. TheNameGeek, which I created, adjusts for deaths using actuarial tables.

Georgia is a female name not a male name. That's why it's not on here.

All the bordering countries are also landlocked. So for Liechtenstein Switzerland and Austria don't have sea access
