Oppose. Premature at best. The recent change of official name is not directly relevant, nor are the primary sources listed, and it's unlikely that secondary sources have picked it up yet. Andrewa (talk) 06:24, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Andrewa. No harm will come from letting this gestate for a while to see how common name usage develops. bd2412 T 03:57, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
