On a side note the new Thameslink station will (like the station above)
be called St Pancras International.

Who has announced that?


No one AFAICT - but it is implied quite strongly in FCC's current timetable
booklet, which clearly refers to their trains stopping at 'St Pancras
International' from Dec 9th. It was discussed in uk.transport.london a month
or so back.

There is someone on Wikipedia by the name of 'Matthewriley' who claims
to be an insider and he states that it was announced internally by the
DfT in April (see http://tinyurl.com/39g6yf). Another than that I can't
find anything else.
