White holes are theoretical cosmic regions that are opposite to black holes. Just as nothing can escape a black hole, nothing can enter a white hole.

I'm not scientist (although I would have been were I not so terrible at math), but these "white holes" make perfect sense. I would like to propose a change in their name. Being the opposite of a black hole, I think they should be called white protuberances. A protuberance is the opposite of a hole. I imagine them as a triangular shape, an upside down funnel, emerging from the blackness of space, blasting energy out its tip.

How would one go about getting this name officially changed? It might seem pedantic but this is science, and theoretical though they may be, they should have a more exact term.
