I'm sure to the fans this is a silly question,but I'm going to ask amyway. How did the clubs get their names? If you've ever watched ESPN invariably Premier league games are on the scroller. Why isn't there a "London" a la New York,Los Angeles,etc and where in the world are Arsenal and Everton, or if many teams have no geogprahic significance how did their names originate?

Some of it is geographic, there are teams like Leeds United, Newcastle United, Liverpool, Wolverhampton, Southampton, the Manchester clubs etc

There are so many clubs at so many levels in London so that’s where you see a lot of different club names. Some of them are named after the burroughs or neighborhoods they’re in
