I fail to see what would be wrong with the Elizabeth Line.

Sounds like something involved in world cruises.

And "Victoria" is an area of London, but "Elizabeth" isn't.

All the better: naming a tube line after a place is dumb, because the
question "Is this a Victoria train" becomes ambiguous (since a train
heading away from Victoria either is or isn't a Victoria train,
depending on how you think about it).

Just naming lines after numbers or letters would be easier for all concerned,
but you usually only get that if an entire system is planned from the start.
