The Chunnel is a name that was sometimes used for the Channel Tunnel before it was built.
This is known as the Channel Tunnel (or Chunnel), named for the English Channel. The Channel Tunnel is no longer referred to as the Chunnel, which was a media generated word when the tunnel first opened but not now.
It's a combination word made up from Channel and Tunnel. The word "chunnel" is no longer used. It is called the Channel Tunnel.
At the moment - it's called 'Eurotunnel'.
