like the idea of recognising London's multinational population in its
station names.

Nothing been suggested to acknowledge the Australians

Does anyone not already know where to find Australians in London?


South Kensington would seem to be a suitable candidate for such renaming.

Surely Earl's Court...? South Kensington should be Kensington-du-Sud.
Gloucester Road should be Glow-sester Road (with an American accent).

and Huguenots yet, I think.


WTF are Huguenots?


A persecuted minority in France during most of the period from the early
1500s until 1789, the French Protestants were given the name Huguenots in
the time of the Reformation.

Although they were forbidden to leave France, hundreds of thousands fled.
They carried French arts, manufactures, and culture to England, Germany, the
Netherlands, and the British colonies of North America.

HTH.
