A world-spanning kingdom? I'm guessing a name synonymous with the name of the world (but not the same name). That means that the kingdom is probably divided into areas similar to districts and each area has its own name that is used more commonly than the name of the kingdom. The kingdom must have been named by someone or a group of people. It could have been called the Lower Brooks by a small village that was the origin of the kingdom and could be Lobruk now.
What are the words for the ground in the languages of the campaign? Most worlds are likely named by their population using their word for ground. Just look at our real world. A different name for this planet based on the language's word for ground or dirt. The word, earth, is an evolution from a word that meant ground and still means dirt or ground or soil in its modern form. It has roots in a language no longer used. Start with that and evolve the word into something that still means dirt or ground.
What is the merchant's guild's history? How did they begin? Bioware was started by physicians (no joke). Supposedly, they had once considered a medical direction for the company. They're only known for games, now. A guild that started off by three people with the original intention of being a local community vault could have the original name Wilson's, T'vars', and Charck's Despository. It could have evolved into "W.T.C." or just "The Depository".
When in doubt, go back to the beginning and trace a path for the evolution into the modern name in the setting.
Human. Male. Possibly. Don't be a divider. My characters' backgrounds are written like instruction manuals rather than stories. My opinion and preferences don't mean you're wrong. I am 99.7603% convinced that the digital dice are messing with me. I roll high when nobody's looking and low when anyone else can see.🎲 “It's a bit early to be thinking about an epitaph. No?” will be my epitaph.

So I’m bad at naming stuff so I was hoping to get some help.
• a kingdom built by humans that spreads across the entire world that allows any civilized people but most races despise it.
• a guild of merchants that transports people or goods for anyone with enough money.
• a name for the world in general

Please check out my homebrew, I would appreciate feedback:

The Rayn Confederacy. “Confederacy” hints at its eclectic citizenship and (for Americans at least) its sinister nature.
The Gilded Casket. A cool name that, for a player who knows Shakespeare, carries a bit of a warning.
Drym. Short and sweet.
