Mapping UK Counties - Northamptonshire Missing

Hi,

 

I have been trying to create a map of UK counties, but am having real issues with Northamptonshire.

 

Specifically, when I type in Northamptonshire, only half is filled in (West Northamptonshire; North Northamptonshire is not filled in. If I type in both counties separately, then none of of Northamptonshire is filled in (see picture below).

I have managed to find the right names for all other counties, but no dice here. Is it potentially a bug in Excel / Bing data?

 

Any help or suggestions would be very welcome.

Thanks in advance!

    Hey, not sure if you are still trying to work on this? I have found a work around. If you enter North Northamptonshire and also West Northamptonshire - it will work.

      Could it be a Bing-Thing, not excel? This gives only west:
      http://www.bing.com/maps?q=northamptonshire+county
      Or not: This works every second time or so, strange:
