Well considering that Reagan is named Washington National Ronald Reagan airport, it would be duplicative.
It's not called that
Everyone still calls it National.
Yes, anyone and everyone native calls it National. Only new people call it Reagan.
Yes, marks you as from somewhere else if you call it Reagan. It's always National to me.

Fort Belvoir already has an airport.

Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD)
Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA)
Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI)
I think there's already enough overlap without removing the only word that distinguishes Dulles.

But fine. If we have to rename it, let's call it the Marion Barry Worldwide Speedway.
Right? Washington National, Washington International, and Baltimore-Washington International. Sounds like a good plan.
Also, I have never encountered anyone who can't say "Dulles."

because if they had built that in Montgomery County, it would have taken more business away from BWI Marshall.

I've actually never heard anyone pronounce Dulles incorrectly. I mean it's said like it's written.

What I think is funny is that itβs a major international airport and I find it to be VERY difficult for non native speakers to say correctly even with practice
FFS. I have said the names of international airports like Shanghai Pudong, Soekarno Baoan, and Chengdu Shuangliu and people understood me. If you want a simpler name than John Foster Dulles, perhaps you should fly into Wonsan Kalma airport and stay there.
