Most of this year's new laws have been relatively minor, like the ones giving honorary names to roads.

Over the years, the city has given honorary alternate names to dozens of streets.

Officials say the process of adding an honorary name to a street has accelerated since the Sept. 11 attack.

A posthumous name is an honorary name given to someone after their death.

(Dr. Kazimiroff lives on as an honorary name of the street.)

Altadena having no waterfalls, Piedmont is an honorary name.

The high command of the Russian armed forces has said the newly established brigades would retain their honorary names and banners.

During this time, the title was an honorary name.

Some royal family members may receive honorary names such as Huihao and Miyagou.

These honorary names appear only on street signs and cannot be used in postal addresses.
