So do we have to stop calling 5-cent pieces "nickels", too?

That's still OK, but don't call them "5-penny pieces".

I don't know why some people object to "penny" for the US coin. It is perfectly acceptable. Yes the officially correct term is "Cent" but there is nothing wrong with calling it a penny. It has been called a penny for hundreds of years and will continue to be so.

Copied pasted from Wikipedia :
Steven Mnuchin, the current U.S. Treasury Secretary, said that he will not commit to putting Tubman on the twenty-dollar bill, explaining "People have been on the bills for a long period of time. This is something we'll consider; right now we have a lot more important issues to focus on."
