Las Vegas is an obviously Spanish name with the Vega in Las Vegas being an actual noun. As someone who knows Spanish, the name Las Pegasus sounds like fingernails on the chalk board.
See, in the Spanish language, the translation for Pegasus is a masculine noun so for the name to sound grammatically correct, the name would have to be Los Pegasos.
