In some countries almost every street is named after a person, so it would be too much trouble to research every street name.

We have a square named after indian city of Bangalore - the Bangalore square. I was sure for a long time that's just another (jewish?) surname. Even though I knew that city, in context of street names I simply assume surnames, it didn't occur to me to think anything else.

We had a Minsk Square in Bangalore too. They are sister cities

Yes, I learned that at some point. You say "had" - I hope it's not renamed / destroyed?
