I will provide a link where a study proved that aboriginals did not think that they are offensive.

That study is almost a decade old.
I don't know if something more recent - but there is enough anecdotal evidenced coupled with COMMON SENSE that the name should be changed.

Frankly if even 9% of aboriginals (as noted in the study you cite) find it offensive - that's enough for me.
