The word or words that form a geographic name change their connotative function and together become a single denotative unit. They change from words having specific dictionary meaning to fixed labels used to refer to geographic entities. The need to imply possession or association no longer exists. Thus, we write “Jamestown” instead of “James’town” or even “Richardsons Creek” instead of “Richard’s son’s creek.” The whole name can be made possessive or associative with an apostrophe at the end as in “Rogers Point’s rocky shore.” Apostrophes may be used within the body of a geographic name to denote a missing letter (Lake O’ the Woods) or when they normally exist in a surname used as part of a geographic name (O’Malley Draw). --- https://geonames.usgs.gov/docs/pubs/DNC_PPP_DEC_2016_V.2.0.pdf Uansett, for å komme tilbake til saken er det kommunen som har øverste bestemmelsesrett for lokale vei- og gatenavn, så man bør sjekke der istedet for statlige arkiver. Så får man evt ignorere hva Vegvesenet gjør på sine gateskilt. https://lokalhistoriewiki.no/wiki/Diskusjon:Gate-_og_veinavn_i_Oslo_kommune -geir On 7/1/19 17:21, N/A N/A wrote: > Ein eldre artikkel om rotet i Oslo > https://www.aftenposten.no/osloby/i/yvGdx/Her-er-allallalle-forvirret > [https://ap.mnocdn.no/images/eeecdc92-d0c1-4a8f-baee-fc7a129e32aa?fit=crop&q=80&w=1440]<https://www.aftenposten.no/osloby/i/yvGdx/Her-er-allallalle-forvirret> > Her er allé/allè/alle forvirret - > Aftenposten<https://www.aftenposten.no/osloby/i/yvGdx/Her-er-allallalle-forvirret> > Her er allé/allè/alle forvirret.
