been named as such, it should perhaps have been named Greenwich

Why? There was long gone North Greenwich station (closed 1926) on the
southern tip of the Isle of Dogs over the river from Greenwich - see
the Disused Stations website [1].


So Ryanair style dubious naming was in practice way back then!

This mirrors the north-of-the-river
naming of North Woolwich, across the Thames from Woolwich proper.


Yes but wasn't North Woolwich administratively part of Woolwich? I don't
think it was part of the Hams pre 1965.
