Concerning this thing in general: whilst I have no particular issue with the politics of the whole business -- ever since it was done in 1966, it has struck me as a move which was precious, portentous, and basically just silly.
In the world at large, station names "community served + suffix" exist because the community has more than one station -- so there is need to distinguish between the different ones. As at 1966, the only place in the Irish Republic with multiple passenger stations, was Dublin: whose Westland Row, Amiens Street, and Kingsbridge were renamed Pearse, Connolly, and Heuston respectively. Fair enough: but all the other cities with "suffixed" stations, had only one station anyway. (Cork had several different stations at one time; bit by 1966, there remained only that on the main line from Dublin, formerly Glanmire Road.)
It was an exercise which just strikes me as pointless -- no matter whether stations were being named after war-of-independence heroes, or Lewis Carroll characters, or Wombles...
