Correct nomenclature for Counties (!)

[kingsleyj]

not 100% sure of its re;evence but people always ask why northampton isnt in the north. the reason i belive is sounthampton and northampton were both call hamptune ( or similare ) and to aviod confusion we have a north and south variation to there same names.

Does anyone use Devonshire ?

Peregrine Cavendish has been known to use it from time to time.
