Who named the Channel 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. The proposed tunnel was always referred as "the Channel Tunnel" long before it was built. In French it is known as "Tunnel sous la manche", "La manche" is French for the channel.
