Sort of like renaming Squaw Mountain (Maine) to Big Moose Mountain. We still call it Squaw Mountain.

The NCAA forced under threats against their scholarships the Division III McMurry University Indians to rename their sports teams. I know firsthand because this happened in my area of West Texas. Nobody wanted it. There was no choice. The name War Hawks was chosen as a substitute after a renaming contest. People like the replacement name, but in their hearts still these are the McMurry University Indians. Officially, they can’t be. A football team with no scholarships to give? Thanks for nothing, NCAA.

Yes, actually it should be "C'est quoi" Mountain.
