Station names

I wish London Underground stations had names that properly
described the area that they were located in, instead of
using obscure street names or some other undescriptive name.
For example, if I had to rename the stations on the
Bakerloo line, I'd have this instead (with a little
help from my A-Z):
Elephant and Castle ---- Walworth North
Lambeth North ---------- OK

As it happens, it seems as if the tube names are more
readily recognised than the area, which is why if you
tell someone you live in Walworth, they have no idea
where you are talking about until you say you live
in the Elephant and Castle.
So why do you want to confuse everyone by changing the names?
