Google Books FAIL

Sorry, Tennyson's "In Memoriam A.H.H." is not the same as Tennyson, Indiana.

(from The Stanford Dictionary of Anglicised Words and Phrases)



Others from the same book: Syracuse (as in Archimedes -- not NY); Dryden, On Coronation; Waterloo (not in Ontario); Phoenix (the bird, not the Arizona city); and Saint Paul (the saint, not the Twin City).
