Nom d'une agglomération, «Woodside», donc d'un lieu habité. Le «lieu historique national Woodside (Ont.)», un lieu historique national géré par Parcs Canada, est nommé d'après le nom qu'avait d'abord donné William Lyon Mackenzie King, premier ministre du Canada de 1926 à 1948, à la maison où il a passé son adolescence, ce qui explique le nom en apposition dans le toponyme du nom de lieu historique national qu'est devenu l'emplacement par la suite; le nom a plus tard été donné au Woodside actuellement habité. 2, record 2, French, - Woodside
