You know, I actually read about that city in AP Human Geography. They wanted to rename the city after realizing after a while that the city is a mouthful (lennyface) to say and that it should be shorter but they kept it because the long-ass name helped with tourism. They do have a shorter, legal name, though, but the longer version is often used commercially. Also, pronouncing it is terrible not only because it's long but because Welsh (or something).
