Shortened name for Greater Houston changed to Houston-Galveston

Recently, contributions have been made consistently insisting that instead of Houston-The Woodlands-Sugar Land being commonly known as Greater Houston in various newspapers and other relevant sources, that it is now Houston-Galveston, as Dallas-Fort Worth is. Those contributions would have to be deemed as dubious at best, as Galveston is nowhere within the name set out by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (I have also explained this in further detail on Talk:Greater Houston). The only name which may come close to this is the Houston-Galveston Area Council, which is a regional council typical in Texas. - TheLionHasSeen ( talk) 13:03, 19 August 2020 (UTC) reply
