I may be wrong, but I seem to recall, again perhaps incorrectly, that this was suggested when the Borough was last liquidated and we became Nuneaton Town.
The reason then was perhaps the same as now.
Nuneaton F.C. are Nuneaton rugby club.

You will know that at the time when the codes were being written for both sports that many clubs were undecided as to where they were going in terms of rules.
Thus Leicester Football Club is, in fact, the Tigers - the rugby club. Leicester Fosse became Leicester City.
Perhaps someone will confirm or deny this.
