Default Tube Lines Could Be Sponsored To Reduce Fares

Saw this article on the BBC website.

Whilst it will probably never come to fruition, does anyone have any
amusing suggestions regarding renamings for stations and lines?

Arsenal to change Arsenal to Emirates.

Wasn't Arsenal itself a case of sponsorship renaming?

West Ham to change Upton Park to Olympic Park.

There are enough problems already with football and station names here.
You'd be looking to rename both Stratfords (admittedly one of them could be
made more accurate) rather than having people roaming Green Street in search
of the new stadium.
