Oakbutt

The problem is that many people these days confuse our local old folks hamlet of Oakmont with a somewhat related business called Oakmont Senior Living. (I'm not sure where either gets the "mont." It's flat-land out there.) 

"Oakmont" is not a good name, people. It's bland and not distinctive--Oakmonts exist in great numbers. The name is not worth a squabble  In fact, in Sonoma County the name conjures up a well-known history of crabby old farts trying to ban bicycles and all sports that include moving balls. That's why I suggest that the hamlet members call a meeting and change the name to Oakbutt. Oakbutt is memorable and reminiscent of constipation, the area's most common health problem other than death.
