Should place names named after Saints for example St. Andrews and St. Helens use an apostrophe? If not, should entities with the names of such places in their own name use an apostrophe, for example St. Andrew's Park, St. Andrew's Flower Shop, St. Andrew's Hospital?
Top answer
A place name sometimes uses the apostrophe, and sometimes not. It was up to the person who originally chose the name.
