Infographic: If U.S. Cities had Kept Their Original Names [Map Updated]

This began when I found out that the original name of Los Angeles was Porciuncula and spiraled out from there. Some liberties have been taken, but generally, this map shows what the cities in the U.S. would be named if they had kept the names they began with. Cities that did not change their names have been left off the map. Click on it to see a full-size version.

Edit: Updated the map based on some suggestions
