Could be a dialect thing. There are a few.

Dublin means black pool, which is also what Blackpool means.

Both names are derived from the colour that tarnished the waters from the peat bogs.

We of course have Blacktown which has got nothing to do with peat bogs and more about dispossessed indigenous folk who were herded into one area west of Parramatta bc of the smallpox that they caught from various merkins.
