my address is:

But I've never, ever written it in the full form and even the
city-supplied street sign shows "Waterman Ln".

this looks like it is almost a draw (181:150). So "never ever" seems
exaggerated. :-)
Nope, note the "I" in that statement. I have NEVER written it in full
form. Lane, yes. SouthEast NEVER. Consider:
http://www.googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=waterman+ln+se&word2=waterman+lane+southeast
But I'm dropping out of this discussion having learned of the OSM
"standard" and being made re-aware of the difference between the "data"
and a "rendering" of the data.
