Most of those places already had names, beautiful, highly symbolic names that evolved over generations, but they were in Savage Nativeish so they don’t count, apparently.

    This reminds me of how most places in Northern Norway have names in the native Sámi and Kven languages as well, and instead of being a normal functioning human being and leaving bilingual/trilingual signs alone, A lot of people decide to go and vandalise the Sámi and/or Kven writing on some signs (especially municipal entry signs).

    One of the most notable examples is the municipality of Kåfjord/Gáivuotna/Kaivuono.

    Absolutely vile behaviour.
