NOOOO. Street is Miguelete.
HOW MANY TIMES WILL THIS KG 2016 SURVEY INTRODUCE ERRORS IN THE MAP????
YOU SHOULD BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WITH THE DATA THAT IS ALREADY THERE, AND ONLY CHANGE IF YOU ARE 110% ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT YOU ARE IMPROVING THE MAP AND NOT (F WORD) IT.

The street signs along Miguelete says "Calle Miguelete". I was following what is physically on the street signs.

Comment from muralito
The old signs says that, but "Calle" is the prefix and not part of the name.
Also In some streets there are mixed signs, old and new, and sometimes the old signs have the old name of the street. -

Following the wiki, adding the prefix is appropriate in this case. "Calle", "Avenida", etc is added in all other country street names as well. If you feel "Calle Miguelete" is historical name you can add in as "old_name" tag. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Names

No. Its not apropiate. "Calle Miguelete" is not an historical name, the name is, and always was the same, Miguelete. "Calle Miguelete" is written on old signs, and "Miguelete" is written on the new ones. Not all olds signs have been taken away.
Avenida and Bulevar are exceptions, and also the signs (old and new) shows "Av." and "Bv."

http://www.montevideo.gub.uy/aplicacion/nomenclator/3564You can also find mixed old signs (not and old name, it's the same name with prefix), for exampe,
in streets Juan Antonio Rodriguez, Prof. Clemente Estable, MagariƱos Cervantes and Florencio Varela. (Surely there are more that I dont remember right now)The string "Calle" is only part of the name in a few exceptions, most commonly when the name is a number or a letter. "Calle 7" or "Calle B".
