I think people who get upset about what a place is called in different translations have an unhealthy fixation on tradition. The point is not what the place is called, but that God became man and died on that hill, whether it's called Calvary, Headpan Stow, the Skull, or Golgotha. (By the way, Headpan Stow is an amazing name! I love Old English for it's amazing use of word images. A good Old Englishman or Norsemen would never call a spade a spade when he could call it an Earth Biter!)

Not even the New American Bible and the New Jerusalem Bible--translations by Catholics for Catholics--bother to use Calvary anymore. The practice of swiping words from Latin instead of translating the Greek words with equivalent English words has fallen out of vogue even among the people who once touted the Vulgate as the most authoritative edition of the Bible.

I think a church named "Mt. Skull Baptist Church" would be pretty awesome
