Deansgate station changed to ‘Olivia Deansgate’

[Deerfold]

Who the heck is Olivia Dean? There's one false assumption they've made, straight away - that everyone will actually get their silly joke.

Confusing and daft. Put it back. And while we're at it TfL can get rid of the confusing meaningless alternatives for clear and obvious names like "North London Line" etc.

They're clear and consistent and a lot better than half a dozen different lines all just being called "Overground". They've explained the meanings behind the names in several pages on their website at https://tfl.gov.uk/modes/london-overground/overground-line-naming.

Practically anyone with Lewis could be used for Lewes, Damien Lewis , Lewes Capaldi etc

I'm sure ed Sheeran could fit into Sheerness on sea or something

Sargent Lewes to Inspector M Ore se.

They might have explained things, doesn't mean it was the correct thing to do. What's wrong with calling lines by their origin or destination. While might not be perfect it offers more information then some random names that most people would need to research before knowing what they are about.

However that is another topic that has been done to death.
