Well to me the words read like he's had an idea and is suggesting it - if he was aware the name had already been proposed, why did he not say words to the effect that the airport should adopt a name that was initially mooted two years ago? In any case, the idea was put forward two years ago but not adopted, and I doubt the ramblings of a travel journalist is going to make it happen now.
