Generations of Limerick people call it King Johns Castle. I couldnt care what it was called 300 years ago - names change. Its known as King Johms castle to Limerick people. I’m not sure what ye Clare lads call it.
Do you still refer to Istanbul as Constantinople?
New York as New Amsterdam?
St Petersburg as Leningrad??
