Families in a Spanish village who have been living with the name Castrillo Matajudios (Kill Jews) since the Spanish Inquisition may finally be changing their towns name back to what it was originally, Castrillo Mota de Judios (Jews Hill)No hurry. Take your time.

The United States has Matamoros (Kill Moors, i.e. Kill Moslems).

They should keep the name, have an annual festival, sell T-shirts, have nice bonfires, lots of spiked lemonade.

I would much rather adopt the Amish custom of naming towns after various acts of physical love.

There were Crypto-Jews who came over with the Spaniards. They practiced Catholicism openly to hide their true heritage. They practiced Judaism in secret. This was due to Spain's expulsion of the Jews in Columbus' time.
Not surprised to see a town named as such.
There is a history of Crypto-Jews in New Mexico.

In New Jersey, there is a place named Kill van Kull.
I don’t know who this van Kull guy was, but somebody sure didn’t like him! :)

The town council can take centuries to deliberate on any question.
