Although Gerard is a typical Dutch name, there's no such street to be found in the Netherlands. There are however lots of Gerard streets and avenues in the USA.

Where The Streets Have Your Name
Wouldn't you like to know if there were streets in the world that share your name? Now you can find out with this nice little app. Type your first name, press 'Map It!', then click the red pushpins to zoom in to see the street that shares your name. Even a few pet names were tossed in so that you can grab Tigger or Fido and share some quality anthropogeographical time. Each map includes namesake towns, parks, rivers, and more.

in google maps vind ik alleen al 5 gerardr... straten in amsterdam.... oh nee, 4 en een plein..
Ja, maar dat zijn St. Gerard straten of Graaf Gerard straten. Een straat met alleen mijn voornaam bestaat er niet.
He he... I'm named after a street. (Yes, really.) And yes, the street was on the map. :-)
