Rejected petition Make Ynys Môn the sole name dropping the name of Anglesey so the island only has one official name.

In line with the official name changes to Yr Wyddfa and Eyri National Park I feel the island should only be known by it's Welsh name Ynys Môn.

Why was this petition rejected?

There’s already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue, or if the Petitions Committee has considered one in the last year.

Another petition calling for this is already collecting signatures:
To stop using the name 'Anglesey' and exclusively use the name 'Ynys Môn' or shorten to 'Môn'.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
