when did America first become known as the united states of America?

Answer 1

1776

It is in the Declaration of Independence

IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America

We, therefore, the Representatives of the > United States of America, < in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. — And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

Answer 2

I believe that after the Articles of Confederation (America's first constitution) was written, America became the United States of America.

Answer 3

It depends on what you mean by "became known as".

The Declaration of Independence in 1776 was entitled "The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America". So, arguably, we first called ourselves that in 1776.

But the title was first adopted formally (with capitalization) in 1787, and became official when the Constitution was ratified in 1788.
