By Jerick Sablan
The commission in charge of Guam's place names sent its recommendations for changes to Guam's southern villages names to the Guam Legislature.
I Kumisión i Fino' CHamoru yan i Fina'nå'guen i Historia yan i Lina'la' i Tåotao Tåno' Chairwoman Hope Cristobal sent a letter to Speaker Therese Terlaje Wednesday with the recommendations.
The Kumisión last month held a public hearing on potential name changes for southern villages and received support from mayors.
Mayors from Agat, Santa Rita, Umatac, Merizo, Talofofo, and Inalåhan voiced their support to officially change village names.
