In Texas the dark means cooler temps so it makes me a Night owl.

When did it change from Barrow?
quote:
The former name Barrow was derived from Point Barrow, and was originally a general designation, because non-native Alaskan residents found it easier to pronounce than the Inupiat name. Point Barrow was named after Sir John Barrow of the British Admiralty by explorer Frederick William Beechey in 1825. A post office was established in 1901 helping the name "Barrow" to become dominant
quote:
In an October 4, 2016, referendum, city voters narrowly approved changing its name to Utqiagvik which became official on December 1.[12][13][14][15] City Council member Qaiyaan Harcharek said the name change supports the use of the Iñupiaq language and is part of a decolonization process.
