I've found quite a few like this (in Oxford). I just change the name tag to
what's on the stop, and put the stop letter in local_ref. I've never yet
found one where the indicator letter was actually part of the stop name.

It's up to the Naptan experts to extract any differences (between name and
naptan:commonname) and decide whether/when to update Naptan accordingly.
