    Sounds indigenous at least in origin and I think it’s cool to use indigenous place names

        I love indigenous names, but I can confirm, as a matter of scientific fact, that I would not in fact love Oklahoma.

        Don’t know if you missclicked or you’re sarcastic but one person downvoted me and I have no upvote

            1. My name isn’t Watson
            2. There is for sure a lot more to say about that than I put in my short comment. Sure, this isn’t the be all end all, and I support landback, it’s still the “white man” deciding which indigenous name to pick and butchering it in the process. But all in all I still think it’s gradually better than calling it Mikesvill.

            I don’t know if any of that was your point but since you think I’m Watson, you don’t seem to know everything either
