* Station names should be as short as possible, preferably so short they fit on the front of a train. Not "Largo Town Center", but "Largo".
* Stations should be named for one (1) location very close to the station. Not "Franconia-Springfield" but "Franconia".
* There is no need to "street", "square", etc in names. Not "McPherson Square" but "McPherson".
* Long streets should be avoided in station names. Not "Georgia Ave-Petworth", but "Petworth".
* Commercial names should be avoided - they are not stable enough. Neither are Universities.
* If no suitable name can be found, a station will be named after a the last name of a president, provided the name is not already in use, starting with Jefferson, unless a station ever gets built on Washington Ave.
