SUBJECT: "Our Kingdom for a Hamee" or "A Rose by any Other Name,"
or __ "Sticks and Stones, etco" or --
"Appropriate Nomenclature for Illunicipal Golf Facilities and Park"
In the hopes that it will not appear that we are rushing in where angels fear
to tread, may I lift a small voice on the sul-)ject of a name for the former
Hays farm.
Dr. Jackson's memo of June 7, reviewed the further study given the matter by
Mr. Greer and himself,, the status of previous proposals and suggested several
new possibilities� Judging from the lack of definitive action by the Park
Board or the Council to date, it -appears, alas and alack, that "Balmoral"
has fallen on ears wh1ch are less than receptive.
Under III - 2, Dr. Jackson's meso lists the following-.
"Araentar (high spot) a nice name - a good golf course"
While not questioning the authenticity of the scholarly research done on this,
we did have an opportunity to have a college student do some, further investi-
gation at the University Library and she has reported the following:
m—ans the brow of a hill - usually high ground
adjoining a river bank
'War" couldn't isolate a maning
92EUrnft • mans brook, creek, or stream
"Bonnie"- means beautiful or lovely
After considering all of the factors involved, we hope,thereare many sound
reasons for having, a distinctive naine with a Scotch base (language -vise, not
liquid -wise). If we simply Say it is the Edina Municipal Golf Course, we
inww.diately run into considerable confusion with Edina Country Club� We should
not cause a good taxpayer any more trouble than absolutely necessary.
"Intervale" is close to infringing upon "Interlachen" - another good taxpayer,
and while "Intervale" is euphoajo,,18, it do_snl t liave great character,,
Your gentle treatment of the folbx4jng suggested nras s is respectfully requested:
1. Bonnie Brae (Lovely hill or hillside)
2. Braeburn (Bink of the stream)
3. Braemar (Fligh spot - a nice name - a good golf course)

P.S. Confession -- there is a Balmral golf course some -where in Northwestern
Minnesota
