Nashville Airport May Rename to Dolly Parton | Dallas News

Nashville’s airport could soon be renamed after Dolly Parton, thanks to a unanimous vote by the airport board — though final approval still hinges on FAA clearance. Governor Bill Lee championed the move, calling her “our state’s favorite daughter” and highlighting her music, generosity, and kindness as perfect reasons for the honor. An online petition has already amassed over 175,000 signatures, while Dolly herself called it “a nice compliment.” The current name, BNA, honors Colonel Harry S. Berry — but renaming it after the cultural icon would give the airport a whole new vibe. With community support swelling and even legislation in the works to make September 25 “9 to 5 Day,” momentum is building fast for this historic tribute to one of music’s most beloved figures.
