What the heck, you know at the time we were all a little too out of it to consider someone may actually have to be from that area to call themselves as such. They probably woke up one day and said "gee this name sounds good" lol.

That would be my guess too, until Wikipedia was invented.
hailing from the Bay Area of California, the group was influenced by the swamp blues genre that came out of south Louisiana in the late 1950s and early to mid-1960s. CCR cultivated a Louisiana connection through its choice of song and album titles, such as "Born on the Bayou," Bayou Country, and Mardi Gras, as well as through the southern "good ol' boy" image projected by its members. Several of their songs also protest against the Vietnam War, such as "Who'll Stop the Rain", "Wrote a Song for Everyone", and most notably "Fortunate Son".

Judging by their music I would have thought so too. That's an interesting thing I did not know.

California.
I was surprised to discover that, too, with all the "Born on the Bayou" stuff.
