Well, the Times and real-estate brokers, that is. Look at the new name for Boston's southernmost neighborhood, though and tell me that isn't pretty close to how the locals already pronounce it.

I don't care at all for the rest, but this one's disturbingly fitting.
The one for Neponset Circle...

NePo and Dorchester Port be DoPo?

In some places, the neighborhood rebranding battle is already lost to the real estate brokers and their hipster allies.
No homo?
I live in J-Play, BoMa, UnSt, on the world called PlEa, in a star system where the center is the SunSol. But at the micro level I like to call my house homo, because it is a household that is a little bit queer and a whole lot gay, I mean happy of course.
There's a stretch along Dot
There's a stretch along Dot Av from Savin Hill Av to Adams St where one can get GOOD PHO.
My favorite place

SOBO?
Sobo is the street name for a certain drug that stops addicts
from getting sick. I have yet to hear a single person use it in reference to the neighborhood.
Don't lump me in with the rest of those real estate brokers!
Thank you.
