At first I said no, then I googled it and Wikipedia says it was the old name for the Los Angeles River. Now that I think about it, the whole name of Los Angeles might have been the same as the original river name: El Rió de Nuestra Senora La Reina de Los Angeles de Porciuncula. Wikipedia says Porciuncula is a small church 4 kms from Assisi, where the Franciscan movement started. It's still a mouthful. Wow!
