Mathematics is defined as the sport of mind and thought ... Can the name of the mathematics sections in universities be changed to the Department of Intellectual Sport? Do you agree on the name
I agree with you.

Changing the name of the subject has sides of the coin.i.e. improving peoples'attitude about the subject or confusing them on the meaning of the subject.
Mathematics is a good name; but for innovative purpose, yes, we can change the name, if something good happens, with name, like, intellectual sport, as some learners feel it less intimidating; then it will be good one...
Think about the title of graduates of "intellectual sport" degree program instead of mathematician what they are called?? The conventional degree title "Mathematics" has more attraction, attention, and affection for scientists.
