The original name given to the point of land was Cape Canaveral. However, after the assassination of JFK the federal government changed the entire geographic point to Cape Kennedy in 1963. There was major consternation over this action because of the historical significance of the name Cape Canaveral. Finally, in a compromise in 1973, the name of Cape Canaveral was given back to the land while "Kennedy Space Center" remained as the NASA facility at which the space program was developed.
