>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; that name was the official name recognized by the federal government of the United States from 1917 until 2015.

@augustus Still waiting for the day when people find out that native people of Germany have never actually called it "Germany".

@lain I know, I don't see the big deal in having your own words for things that differ from native names. It's the whole point of having different languages. Having said that Mount McKinley is a really shit name for the tallest mountain in North America
