London got it's name because Simcoe hoped it would persuade the Queen to make it the Upper Canada capitol...........nothing more.

This conversation comes up in London every decade and New London was never really considered because there is already a New London in Conn. As I recall the only name that seemed to get some support was The Forest City and a lessser known option was Talbot City.
