Missing contest: Original "official" change occurred in 1917, not 2015. 2015 was a change back to the original, affirming what the state of Alaska had already done decades earlier.
From Wiki:
The Koyukon people who inhabit the area around the mountain have referred to the peak as "Denali" for centuries. In 1896, a gold prospector named it "Mount McKinley" in support of then-presidential candidate William McKinley, who later became the 25th president; McKinley's name was the official name recognized by the federal government of the United States from 1917 until 2015. In August 2015, 40 years after Alaska had done so, the United States Department of the Interior announced the change of the official name of the mountain to Denali.[9][10][11]
What's going on now is unquestionably petty spite. Enjoy the meal!
