Alternate name for Onchan, Isle of Man?

Alternate name for Onchan, Isle of Man?

This arises out of doing my ten place names for standardisation. One place name that I had to standardise was (if I recall correctly) "Conchan, Isle of Man". Nothing lower than "Isle of Man" came up so I checked in Wikipedia and discovered that Kirk Conchan is a historic name for Onchan, viz:

"Onchan ... historically Kirk Conchan, is one of the seventeen historic parishes of the Isle of Man".

 

Given that it is one of those parishes, it would seem sensible to add this as an alternate name(s), so...

 

Please add "Kirk Conchan" and "Conchan" as Alternate Names for the current place "Onchan, Isle of Man"

 

See Wikipedia
