There is a discussion going on in New Zealand.
I'd rate this a one-star talk presently, but likely to consume the country by the end of 2022.
The idea? Well....the Maori people (local natives) want to rename the country.
New name? "Aotearoa."
It means "land of the long, white cloud".
Odds of this happening? Well....here's the current landscape of New Zealand....it's hyped up on 'politically correctness'. I'd take a humble guess that somewhere between 25 to 50 percent of public lean toward political correctness being the standard way of resolving things. It wouldn't take that much to achieve Aotearoa.
The thing I'd see about this....once you got this situation done and renamed.....what would stop you from renaming Christchurch, Wellington, or Auckland?
