SNA (Santa Ana, CA) was renamed for John Wayne in 1979 with no effect on the airport's IATA code. Its previous name was Orange County Airport.
And thanks to all for the good info -- ORD was left unchanged in order to honor its historical name of Orchard Field. Fair enough.
I didn’t look…. DCX or DCB or DCI taken? DCA- national, DCB for Dulles as in A/B

I think the Dulles airport came because it was built for long distance and international flights thus IAD..instead odf DUL
