Trivia: Easily confused station names

[LSWR Cavalier]

Sometimes I do not fix the name of a station in my head, but an image, Berlin Zoo = elephants and giraffes. Quite possibly I would get off at Tiergarten, animal park, by mistake.

Berwick, its namesake on the Tweed, and North Berwick

Berwick is also in Sussex

That is the first "Berwick" I was referring to.

Got stopped by a US tourist near the tube at Kings Cross asking how to get to Leicester. Seems a no-brainer, cross the road and get on an EMR fast northwards, until I somewhat later remembered the American habit of completely ignoring suffixes like "Street", "Road"... and "Square"

This habit seems to reach ridiculous heights on the "L" network in Chicago, where there are three stations called simply "Chicago" on the N side of the city centre where their different lines cross W Chicago Ave.

At least these are in vaguely the same part of the city - there are four "Kedzies" spread over vastly different areas of the W side of the city where different lines cross N Kedzie Ave or S Kedzie Ave. In addition to these, the Blue line crosses both in its U-shaped course, but at least has the southern crossing labelled as Kedzie-Holman and the northern one as an almost-descriptive Logan Square. Oh, and while it is consistent with the overall scheme, who would guess "Davis" is the central stop for the adjacent city of Evanston?

These two should sound quite different!
