Does anyone know why 'St John' is pronounced 'Sinjin' if used as a person's name? (moved from article)
:It's just happened through contraction over the centuries, with the unaccented "Saint" losing most of its letters and being pronounced "Sn", and then the accent switching to the first syllable when people start to see it as one word rather than two.

----
Regarding all the places and colleges named ''Saint John'': are they all named in honor of one and the same specific Saint John (and if so, which one?), or does every place pick their favorite John from the list?

:Interesting question, maybe a bit too ambitious for a disambiguation page, but the Rambot article wont help either.
:At least for
St. John, Indiana , the following page probably answers it: [http://www.stjohnin.com/Community/churches.htm stjohnin.com/Community/churches.htm]
:For
St. John, Missouri : [http://www.cityofstjohn.org/history.html] -- User:Docu
