I guess Los Angeles will also have to change its name since it mentions angels. Can you imagine how that offends “some” people?

Dude, it's so much worse than that! The official name of the city is La Ciudad de Nuestra Senora, Reina de Los Angeles. "The City of Our Lady, Queen of the Angels."

Catholic with bells on, in your face. Named after the Blessed Virgin. I wish we had some East Coast town names to match, but our history was wrong for that.

San Gabriel, San Pedro, San Fernando, and Santa Monica must go, as including the Spanish word for saint endorses religion too. Then we can move on to Santa Ana and San Clemente, San Onofre and San Diego, San Francisco....
