Personally, I struggled with the new name for the lake. I couldn’t figure out how to pronounce it at first. Nothing in school prepared me for how to read “Bde”, and I definitely wouldn’t have expected it to rhyme with “g’day”.
I don’t particularly care for the new flag design, but I suspect I’ll get used to it. I’m not entirely clear on the motivation behind redesigning the flag in the first place, tbh.
Good points. I heard it on the radio a bunch, which makes it easier. Maybe radio versus print impacts acceptance?
I think several of the finalists were better than the final, but all are better than the current. I will also get used to it. (Anyone reading this, look under “History” section on Wikipedia for the finalists.)
