There was some kind of vote on the Belgian mailing list a few years
ago to chose between just "<stopname>" or "<placename> <stopname>".
The latter had more voters. Hence, all stops should have the combined
name.
 I never liked it (for the reasons mentioned by Frederik & Colin), put
some others thought it would be nice to have the same name as in the
timetable books.
The placename is never mentioned on the bus stop.

As for your formula, it might be better to discuss that on the public
transport mailing list.
