The fans should probably have a say although, let's face it, that's being quite naive in the face of the business these clubs are. I don't know about all the instances of the above teams apart from Arsenal whose lack of fans had caused them to move from Woolwich causing the name change, and that was not that long after they were formed. Changing it now to 'London Arsenal' or something would cause more aggro.
