When was Palestine first called Palestine?

Palestine or the name Philistine comes from the word Peleset or Peleshti used by Egyptians between 1200-1175 BCE to the region of southern Canaan where the Philistines resided. There seems to be many sources for the root of the word Peleset or Peleshti but most notably is from Caphtor which may refer to either Crete or Cyprus.
