History
The station was initially planned under the provisional name Kashida Station (柏田駅 Kashida-eki). JR West preferred Nagase, a widely known place name, for the definite station name rather than obscure Kashida, but since there is a separate Nagase Station on Kintetsu Osaka Line, the station was finally named JR Nagase.
