Someone should go through the exercise of matching BoM names with Texas towns. I think you'd be surprised that I bet the same argument could be made.

People will fire arrows at the BoM from afar, because they known they can't do hand to hand combat. They know that they have no real explanation for it.

Has SU even ventured his opinion as to its origins? The BoM rings true on its own.

Check out the name of this place that is just one mile north of my house:
