Talk:Straight Street

"Called"
What's the origin of the rather odd phrasing of the street's name in English? Since the Latin can be translated rather straightforwardly as "Straight Street," I'm curious. Is this the name used in the King James Bible, perhas? --Jfruh (talk) 23:04, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Interesting question, I took it to the reference desk, you can check the answers there. (interesting stuff). Yazan (talk) 10:57, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
