You missed "-hurst", also meaning "hill". :-).

With Alakoring influence from one direction, and Heortling from the other, I can easily see at least two different prefix/suffix meaning the same thing.

But my meaning was that there is no reason to assume that all the apple-growing places will end up being called "Apple Lane". Whether it gets called "Apple Lane with a suffix" or Apple Hill, or whatever, there is no sensible reaon to make all apple places the same name.

This is really just getting silly at this point...
