Whorehouse Meadow in Oregon was changed on Bureau of Land Management maps in the 1960s to Naughty Girl Meadow, which is among the worst examples of place name bowdlerization in history.
Fortunately it reverted to the old name after “public outcry”. 
I definitely prefer “Burma” to “Myanmar”.
So do many of the residents:
I kinda miss the Pirate Coast.
“Myanmar Shave” is a total loser.
Hot Springs, New Mexico definitely lost some of its appeal when the town changed its name to Truth or Consequences in honor of the game show.
Velda Village, Missouri changed its name to avoid confusion (and show superiority) to its next-door neighbor, Velda Village Hills. Unfortunately, they “upgraded” to Velda City.
I liked Siam, where the Siamese cats comes from. Thailand doesn’t sound the same.
We use feet
And pounds as well
Even Fahrenheit degrees
We fit in with Liberia
And the United States with ease
Myanmar Shave
According to Norman Maclean (in Young Men and Fire), in the 1920s a U.S. Forest Service crew dubbed a stream they’d mapped “Wet Ass Creek”. Unfortunately, the bluenoses in D.C. revised it to “Wetase Creek” on the official USFS maps.
“Washington National Airport” was a much better name than “Ronald Regan Washington National Airport” (which is the full official name). Regardless of how you feel about Regan, they just made the name of the airport overly long by sticking his name in there.
I always preferred the name Pangaea. We were all one big happy family in those days. Then the splitters called the different parts names like “Africa” and “South America”, and we’ve been drifting apart ever since.
I always thought that they should have compromised, and just named the control tower after him. 
I like Turtle Island better than North America.
Not a bad name at all, it’s vigorous without being overbearing.
I feel kinda the same way about Hartsfield Jackson International Airport. I mean, I like memorializing Atlanta’s first African-American mayor (and he was good at his job, so far as I remember), but it’s a bit of a mouthful.
On the other hand, the widely-used shorter form “Hartsfield-Jackson”, has a better flow than “Hartsfield International”, which it replaced.
Czech Republic is better than Czechia.
Arrowhead Stadium vs GEHA Field. No contest.
Politics aside, National airport (DCA) in D.C. just makes sense. Nation’s capital, national airport.
I don’t call it Reagan.
From what I understand (based on a quick look at a Wikipedia article) “Czech Republic” was never the country’s official name, it was just a name widely used in the English speaking world. “Czechia” was always their recommended English equivalent of Česko, their official short name in Czech. It’s only just become more widely adopted in recent years.
I guess it has always been officially called “Hoover Dam”, but thanks to that president’s unpopularity, it was always called “Boulder Dam” in my family. Politics aside, I just like the unintended allusion to a huge dam made out of big rocks. When I’ve called it Boulder Dam out of habit, most people don’t know what I’m talking about.
