Subdivisions

When you are naming a street, there are certain requirements so we've developed guidelines to assist.

All names will need to be submitted in the Proposed Street Name Register for approval. If you do not have a log-in for this register please contact subdivisions@whittlesea.vic.gov.au and we will organise you a login.

Please submit no more than 30 names at a time and only submit names that you have given the following consideration to the following requirements:

• Meets the requirements of the Naming Rules for Places in Victoria
• Is not a duplicate of an existing name within the radii as set out by Geographic Names Victoria. Please use LASSI to verify.
• Has a link to a place which we request you provide to subdivisions@whittlesea.vic.gov.au at the time of submitting into the register so we can use this information in our assessment.
• Is not a registered business name that can be linked to the developer.
• Is not a first name or name of a living person connected to the development. 
• Is easy to pronounce, spell and write and preferably not exceed three words (including feature or road type) and/or 25 characters.
