EIGHT features of Newcastle - including Nobbys Head, Hunter River and the port - would be given twin names under a plan to recognise Aboriginal history. Newcastle councillors voted unanimously yesterday to endorse an application to the Geographical Names Board for the proposal.
...
Both names would be shown on signs and maps.
...
The twin-name plan mirrors the dual naming of "Ayers Rock" with its Aboriginal name "Uluru".
...
Linguist Sophie Nicholls said the first documented reference to "Nobbys Head" with the Aboriginal name "Whibayganba" was found in a Sir Thomas Mitchell sketch in 1828.
Dr Nicholls said Matthew Flinders, the first person to circumnavigate Australia, recorded the Aboriginal name "Yohaaba" for the "port at Newcastle" during voyages from 1798 to 1803.
