    Could they be house names?

    House numbers, maybe, although I doubt the CC even get involved at that level, but you can call your house whatever you like. The recent plastering of house names all over Google maps was indeed derived from OSi data I believe.

    House names were probably from An Post GeoDirectory rather than OSI.
