an English term for the tunnel is 'the chunnel' (a new word coined from 'channel' and 'tunnel')
It wasn't named, that is just where and what it is. The Channel Tunnel runs under the English Channel. It is often just called "the Channel" for short, for example in the phrase "cross channel ferry". There have been proposals to build a tunnel under the Channel for more than 100 years.
