The five future neighbourhoods in Riverview were originally named by Edmonton's Naming Committee on June 25, 2015, with Riverview Neighbourhood 2 being named Golden Willow.[6] The developers of Golden Willow and two other adjacent future neighbourhoods subsequently appealed three of neighbourhood names to city council's executive committee.[7] The executive committee overturned the naming decisions for the three neighbourhoods and Golden Willow was renamed Stillwater.[8]
