That’s certainly where it comes from. It’s not always actually true though. Sometimes someone just liked the name and didn’t even think about what it meant.
It’s like the name Lakeview. I’ve been to more than just a couple places named Lakeview something or another. Streets, towns, apartment complexes. The only thing they all had in common is that not a single one of them had a view of a lake.
To be fair, I assume you’re American and you guys call the main course the entrée. What else can one expect from uncultured barbarians that they don’t respect the most basic laws of human decency? I mean, what’s next? Wearing a hat inside? Disgusting.
Globally the US doesn’t rank that high in language or ethnic diversity. Essentially all of Africa is more diverse both ethnically and linguistically. If you want to look at religious diversity, the US doesn’t rank that high either.
Having lots of very small communities of immigrants in a society that primarily speaks 1 language and is majority one religion is not that diverse.
My town has a “Valley View” that is always amusing. Yeah, it’s at the bottom of a small valley, so there’s no view except the immediately surrounding houses

We have a bunch of cities here with the word laguna in their name, at least 4 from memory in the same county. No lagunas in sight.
I’m pretty sure there’s at least one Renault Laguna parked down the road.
