St Patricks Parish, anyone???

I know a St Patrick's church in Fort Augustus, 20 km or so from a St Patricks Parish which includes the village of St Peters, one of the oldest French/English place names on PEI. The use of place names like St Patricks Parish that no-one uses on PEI and sound like they came from Louisiana is disconcerting and does not help with locations. In Louisiana they know where the parishes are. Here these are manufactured place names. What is wrong with place names on the map?
