Well, if we're going to use named exchanges, it would actually be
MERidian-1234. Exchanges originally were specified entirely by a word
(as opposed to a word and 1 number). They changed it to the
letter-letter-number style when they started running out of numbers in
the original exchanges. Unless of course the 7 is supposed to signify
something.
