I think we can all agree that Helena, MT is far less exciting sounding than "Last Chance, MT".

If US cities had kept their original names
Some of these you probably know, eg New York -> New Amsterdam, but some of them I had no idea. (must not make a Beaver Creek joke...). Also some of them aren't 100% accurate. Washington D.C. for instance wasn't just a renaming of Georgetown, but a merging/drawing standard borderlines of Georgetown + the City/County of Washington and a bit of the city of Alexandria, VA (originally) - but that's splitting hairs.
