Note: "A street or road name is an identifying name given to a street or road. In toponymic terminology, names of streets and roads are referred to as hodonyms (from Ancient Greek ὁδός / hodós - road, and ὄνομα / ónoma - name). The street name usually forms part of the address (though addresses in some parts of the world, notably most of Japan, make no reference to street names). Buildings are often given numbers along the street to further help identify them. Odonymy is the study of road names.

Names are often given in a two-part form: an individual name known as the specific, and an indicator of the type of street, known as the generic. Examples are "Main Road", "Fleet Street" and "Park Avenue". The type of street stated, however, can sometimes be misleading: a street named "Park Avenue" need not have the characteristics of an avenue in the generic sense. Some street names have only one element, such as "The Mall" or "The Beeches"." - (en.wikipedia.org 31.07.2021)
