Buck who?

There is a street in Marietta named Sweet Buckeye. There is also a street named Buckeye. Postal-wise, They are sometimes confused because the Sweet in Sweet Buckeye is sometimes omitted, but luckily Sweet Buckeye and Buckeye have completely different numbers. Like one of them might have numbers that start with 1000 and the other one's numbers start with 4000. Which brings up why was the word Sweet omitted from Sweet Buckeye? On Sweet Buckeye lived a high ranking military officer. Apparently, he did not accept the fact that the word "Sweet" as part of his address. The word "sweet" insinuates unmanlyness. What would people think ?
