I say if the name is changed it is changed to the "Washington Human-Beings" in honor of Chief Dan George aka "Old Lodge Skins" in the movie "Little Big Man. A more honorable portrayal of a Native American has never been presented in film. We should all try to strive to be "human-beings". Of course if you have not seen the movie you are thinking this comment is stupid. See the movie....it is awesome.
Also if my memory of the history of the logo on the helmets now is correct, the likeness was an actual portrait of a Native American and not just a dreamed up likeness.
I can sorta see some problem some NA's may have with the name but as far as the logo itself is concerned I see as being nothing BUT a respectful rendition of a proud people.
I fear a name change is inevitable as the country moves closer and closer to complete political correctness.
