You wouldn't want to suggest renaming "Trent Bridge" (in Nottingham) on
all the bus timetables, just because there's a cricket ground nearby,
would you?

In that case, Upton Park station should be renamed West Ham. That'll
alleviate any confusion.

Oddly enough there's a bridge over the river Trent called Trent Bridge;
however the nearest patch of open space in West Ham is called Priory
Park. There's already a West Ham station further to the west, and East
Ham to the east. "East Ham West" seems a bit of a mouthful... how about
"East Plaistow"?

No, just have two West Hams. Separated by Plaice-toe. People will get the
hang of it before long.
