JFK Boulevard used to be Pennsylvania Avenue. that one stuck.
i agree that it's better to use just that last names. after all, it isnt Stephen Girard avenue of the Theodore Roosevelt Boulevard. i'm not sure when/why things got more bureaucratic-sounding. King Drive, or Kennedy Boulevard, sound much better.
