Originally called the Hoover Dam in honor of President Hoover, who passed a bill for its construction, what was it called for a while during Roosevelt's administration?

President Hoover helped pass the bill involving the construction of the Hoover Dam, but after Roosevelt became president, it was renamed the Boulder Dam temporarily, because the new Secretary of the Interior allegedly disliked the former president. In 1947, Congress restored its original name.
