I vant to be left alone

There is an upscale neighborhood here in Winston-Salem named Coventry.

Now, Coventry is indeed named after the city by the same name in England, where Lady Godiva made her famous clothing-free horseback ride. In that sense, it's no different than a development named "London" or "Oxford".

But each time I see the name of the neighborhood as I'm passing the gates driving here or there, I am reminded of the phrase "to send (someone) to Coventry."
