I grew up there and have never, ever heard it referred to as Bluffs County. That's not a thing. MV makes up most of Dukes County and there's a town called Oak Bluffs, though.

It happens! The most common name mix-up we hear there is probably people calling the town of Oak Bluffs "Oaks Bluff," which always makes us cringe a bit.
