In the wake of a bill proposing the renaming of Nashville International Airport (BNA) to honor President Donald Trump, a new icon is being brought forward as a candidate.
A petition to rename BNA after beloved Tennessee music and pop culture legend Dolly Parton began taking signatures on January 21. It is now approaching 50,000 signatures as of April 7.
The petition on Change.org states:
"As proud citizens of Tennessee, we are motivated by our deep-rooted admiration for the national treasure and Tennessee legend, Dolly Parton. She is not only a celebrated artist who encourages love, acceptance, and goodwill through her music, but also a philanthropist, known for her countless contributions to society.
It is only fitting that an institution as significant as Nashville International Airport carries the name of such a remarkable woman. Dolly has made substantial impacts on thousands of lives, especially through her Imagination Library program, which has gifted over 100 million books to children since it began in 1995. Dolly's philanthropic efforts, her outstanding influence in the music industry, and the love she has instilled in our hearts through her actions and songs, truly make her a deserving candidate to have the Nashville International Airport named after her.
We request that the airport’s name be changed to Dolly Parton International Airport to honor an icon who has given so much to our state and to the world.
Nashville International Airport's code "BNA" stands for Berry Field Nashville, named after Colonel Harry S. Berry. According to the Nashville International Airport, Berry was a World War I veteran and the first administrator of the airport.

Agreed.
The woman is a damn near saint. We don't deserve her.
Her philanthropic efforts hold no peer.

Unless it's DC I don't see any reason to name an airport after a president unless they're from that state. Dolly has way more to do with Tennessee than Trump and is a far more likeable person.

Can anyone come up with a valid reason not to? She’s a national treasure and has done a lot for her hometown and Tennessee as a whole.

Serial downvoter, if you hate Dolly you'll downvote this post.

Respect for Dolly and everything she has done for her community and beyond.
Sad to hear that her brother and husband both died less than 3 months from each other. It must have been rough for her.

They were married for just shy of 60 years.
You won't see that anymore.

Makes more sense than naming it after Trump.

There is still a group who wants the current name to remain since he was a WWI vet, which is completely reasonable.
Posted on 4/10/25 at 8:09 pm to SteelerBravesDawg
Dolly is probably more deserving of it than Trump. I support.

Somehow both of my kids got free books every month in the mail from Dolly. I don't care who you are, that's a pretty awesome thing for her to do.

Thanks for proving you hate Dolly and that you're just an overall shithead , serial downvoter.
