Ours is named after Thurgood Marshall and I really like that, actually. I could see doing BWI-Hasselhoff Airport. Or the Rik Ocasek Carport. The Edgar Allen Air-Poe-t.

Admiral William Brown (also known in Spanish as Guillermo Brown) (June 22, 1777 – March 3, 1857) was an Irish-born Argentine Admiral. Brown's victories in the Independence War, the Argentina-Brazil War, and the Guerra Grande in Uruguay earned the respect and appreciation of the Argentine people, and today he is regarded as one of Argentina's national heroes. Creator and first admiral of the country's maritime forces, he is commonly known as the "father of the Argentine Navy".[2][3][4][5]

Not bad, Shakey but in the 60's, I doubt I could have resisted the temptation to call it Jefferson Airport.
