How about this name change? In Illinois of all states, lol. I was born near there but been living in the south for the past 30 years so I don't claim them anymore.
Racially insensitive name of creek in Bureau County to be changed
For over 200 years, the creek was named Negro Creek after the area's first Black settler, but now it's being changed to Adams Creek, the man's name.www.wqad.com
That actually kinda makes sense...
If you're going to name something after somebody, might as well use their name.
