I was wondering which station in the London area has been through the most name changes in its history.
I found one with six. Are there some with more?
Any ideas?

I should probably just look at the Douglas Rose map for ideas, if it is an underground station. I wonder if Bayswater might be a contender?

Perhaps Embankment/Charing Cross? Or Embankment/Charing Cross/Trafalgar Square/Strand/Aldwych... Quite a few stations had different names proposed before they opened too. |
