There's already Marvel Super Hero Island in Islands of Adventure. Animal Kingdom was to feature Beastly Kingdom. Most of the areas in Disneyland end in -land.

Yes, but this is a park that is being called Universal Epic Universe (without the possessive s now)

So... Dark Universe at Universal Epic Universe

Experience the all new Dark Universe at Universal Epic Universe. Tongue twister

(The new logos they debuted recently all removed the possessive... so)
Come to Universal's Dark Universe in Universal's Epic Universe to experience characters from Universal's Dark Universe.

Of course it's called Marvel Super Hero Island, it is an island in a park called Islands of Adventure. That makes sense. Beastly Kingdom didn't happen and who knows if that would have been the final name had it seen the light of day.

I've got nothing to defend Disneyland.
