Suggested themes for new road names - Q-Z


A-L M-P Q-Z


To assist Councils and developers with proposals for new road names the following themes may be considered:

Rivers – Western Australia

Rivers – Australian

Rivers – International

Rock & Roll Stars

Sea Shells

Senators (Deceased) – Western Australia
    Each of these names is suitable for use anywhere in Western Australia, subject to the duplication rule. There would be few situations where the names Cook, Fraser, Henderson, Robinson, Scott and Smith could be given to new roads because these names have been applied to many roads already (there are, for example, 61 roads in the state with the name Robinson)

Shellfish is a term used to describe shelled molluscs and crustaceans used as food. Shelled molluscs include the clam, mussel, oyster, winkle and scallop; some crustaceans are the shrimp, prawn, lobster, crayfish, and crab. Squid, octopus and terrestrial snails, though edible and biologically similar to mollusc shellfish, are generally not considered to be shellfish. Some other marine animals, such as sea urchins, are also considered to be shellfish.
