I’m sure this has nothing to do with the $600 billion water megaproject that IIRC is supposed to route the Red Flag river through that village…
Names come with utility and meaning. If a village has a new utility, it typically takes a new name (New Amsterdam -> New York, Ville-Marie -> Montreal). Guardian at its finest.
