I'm with Vicky too.
Would have voted Fitzrovia Allotments if it'd been there.

I totally agree with the comments from Vicky - I would certainly have voted for Fitzrovia Allotments. I wouldn't want to turn this into a 'Irish Lisbon Treaty re-vote', but then again, hey, why not. Perhaps a short list could be presented for a second round?

I believe Fitzrovia Allotments is the most appropriate name but as it was added late to the list some people may regret having voted for another option. Please can you allow anyone the chance to re-vote if this is the case.
I think a lot of people in the area identify it as Fitzrovia - definitely not Noho - and the name Fitzrovia Allotments is clear and immediate. Some of the punning names are a bit groan-worthy. Also, it is a nice juxtaposition between the slightly poncey connotations of 'Fitzrovia' and the down-to-earth (no pun intended), rather unlikely, element of 'Allotments' in the West End.
Groho is just too much like the hated Noho. Trug is plain ugly. Any of the others would do, in my book. I voted for Middlesex Allotments out of respect for the history of the site, but I don't really mind which of the others gets the vote.

Please can we call the site the Fitzrovia Allotments?

I rest my case.
Have added Fitzrovia Allotments for you Helen
