If there is already a thread about this, my apologies, but I could not find it.
This article in The Jaxson from a few weeks ago:

There is an item in today's Jacksonville Business Journal that the Historical Society is asking for suggestions for what to call the place.

The organizers of a music history museum dedicated to establishing Jacksonville's position as the birthplace of southern rock are looking for help in coming up with a name.

The new museum and performance venue looks to leverage the memories and memorabilia of people who lived through the birth of Southern rock and roll, as well as pay homage to the giants in the blues and jazz genres in Jacksonville's African American community, the Jacksonville Historical Society and museum task force, said in a statement.
