The final names aren't really important. For all we know, Sky might not have reached a final decision on the names at this point. In any event, we know that temporary re-brands are quite popular with Sky branded channels. It could be that after launching a new sports channel, Sky could potentially re-brand it as, say, Sky Tiddlywinks the following month.

As with any re-brand, it only takes a few small adjustments to the SDT. There is no reason why the "internal" channels cannot be renamed at the same point as other channels in the group.

But our Sky Sources did confirmed that some (part) of the articles (posted online last week) isn't entirely correct.
Indeed, then again, it is possible that certain prospective channel names were leaked to the press to see how the general public reacted to the names and the changes. Something probably better discussed in a different thread.
