- Press articles announcing the official change of name shouldn't count. What would count is independent reliable sources using the new name and not mentioning the old one. This particular proposed name seems confusing, while the old one is clear. — BarrelProof (talk) 17:43, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

- Weak oppose pending evidence of common name being used (not just an announcement of an intent to change the name) in independent reliable sources. I suspect that independent sources will feel the need to clarify what they are referring to, such as referring to the "Virginia housing agency" or "Virginia Housing department" instead of just saying "Virginia Housing" did something-or-other. — BarrelProof (talk) 18:49, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
