English term or phrase: Fort Worth的别称
She was fond of Fort Worth. It was small, poor, and proud of being known as Cowtown, Where the West Begins

在这句话中,Cowtown是否可以译为“牛区小镇”?还是沃斯堡的这个别称另有译法?

Explanation:
是别名没错:和Fort Worth的历史有关,最早的居民以畜牧为生,所以多牛仔(cowboy),故而得名

Fort Worth went from a sleepy outpost to a bustling town when it became a stop along the legendary Chisholm Trail, the dusty path on which millions of head of cattle were driven north to market. Fort Worth became the center of the cattle drives, and later, the ranching industry. Its location on the Old Chisholm Trail helped establish Fort Worth as a trading and cattle center and earned it the nickname "Cowtown".
