Rejected petition Change name of 'Hopper' card to 'KHAN KARD'

Someone's missed a trick by naming the new 1-hr travelcard for London 'the Hopper', & not calling it the 'Khan Kard' instead after the man who bought it in, new London Mayor Sadiq Khan. It's got alliteration & if Boris got bikes informally named after him, why not have these cards named after Sadiq?
