As for the English name of Qiukeyu , i don't have any ideal yet .

Any information in the bible regarding the names for the all the passes? Are the names all based on historical records or are some of the names bases on best fit?
The names I have written is based on Tangshan maps without all the small villages. For travel purpose I believe this is the best way to name the pass since no one knows the historical names anyway when you get to the countryside and less famous GW sections - at least non of the locals and the road signs might not show the way the the villages the GW pass was named after.
