Absolutely, it's like living in London and eventually having to accept that tourists will always say "Big Ben" when they mean the clock tower of the Palace of Westminster, which encloses the bell whose actual name is Big Ben. The name of the tower is, de facto, Big Ben, and life gets so much easier when you drop the urge to tell people they are wrong all the time...

Edit: TIL the tower was properly renamed "Elizabeth Tower" in 2012 [0] but I seriously doubt a single person in the last 12 years has ever used that name...

I wouldn't put that in the same category. If you say Canada Goose everyone still knows what you mean. If you say Elizabeth Tower, they probably don't.
