There are many places named after British Prime Ministers. Pittsburgh, Melbourne and Sydney are a few examples - though obviously not the capital of their countries.

Wellington, the capital of New Zealand was named after the Duke of Wellington, Arthur Wellesley who was Prime Minister from 1828 to 1830.
