The first name is the one that sticks in people's minds. If they'd
wanted to called it the Elizabeth Line, they should have used that
name from the start. Having first called it Crossrail, that's the name
they should stick with.

Like for Opal Fruits, Marathon and Jif.

I hadn't even realised that the New Severn Bridge was now called the
Prince of Wales Bridge.


I've never heard a member of the public refer to the Dartford Bridge as
the QE II bridge.


I call it the Dartford Crossing, unless I really need to distinguish
between the n/b and the s/b.

"Dartford Bridge" is a small old bridge in the town centre.
