I don't understand - the "name changed" but "was not officially
changed back"? Afaik, it's Ferntree Gully, and that's how it should be
in OSM. Sounds like the other party is getting a bit hung up on some
particular source they have designated canonical...although we have no
such policy.
Fwiw, I live near Glenhuntly Station - so named despite the spelling
of Glen Huntly (suburb) and Glen Huntly Rd.
