Why not Bethnal Green South? It's still in Bethnal Green, though in LBTH St
Peter's Ward rather than Bethnal Green Ward which the LUL station is (just)
in.

Oh yeah. http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/election-maps/gb/

Most of the people coming south on the Hackney Downs line who want
"Bethnal Green" would be better off alighting at Cambridge Heath rather
than BG-NR. Most people coming from Liverpool Street who want "Bethnal
Green" would get the tube instead. So a name based on Bethnal Green has
limited functionality, compared to a name based on Whitechapel. The
other option is "Spitalfields" or "East Spitalfields", but I don't know
the area well enough to know if that name might be downright misleading.

What's wrong with Whitechapel North?
