Well said, S-M.
In Canada, we have our doozies as well:
Edmonton Eskimoes (The correct term is Inuit...Eskimo is a derogatory Cree term to mean eaters of raw meat).

Why did the Washington Bullets become the Washington Wizards? Was it because of gang violence in the DC area that "bullets" seems to suggest?
I think that the name was changed because of the violence associated with bullets.
