Surprised to see Texas isn't Spanish.
Probably the names are too diverse? Dallas, Houston, Alamo, but they do have some like San Antonio.
While Texas may have a lot of Spanish place names, unlike NM using Santa a lot, and CA using San a lot, Texas just has Spanish names that do not include a similar word.
