Submissions for name proposals on hold until mid-July

At this time, no new naming proposals will be accepted until after July 14, 2025, when a new proposal form will be available. New proposals will need to use the updated form. Requests received after July 14th, using the old version of the form, will not be processed.

The new form will help streamline the process used by the Board on Geographic Names Domestic Names Committee to evaluate suggested names for currently unnamed geographic features, or for proposals to change the name, spelling, or location where a name is applied.
