Great point!  JKR has the house as 12 Grimmauld Place, so I went to 
wikipedie to look at street naming policies and found that any type 
of culs-de-sac can be named: Close, Court, Place, Cove....BUT the 
following are named by the shape:  Circle, Crescent, Square, Loop.

So while one can be the same or compare to the other, the vice versa 
may not be true.

So there, I'm sticking to my idea of the semi-circle...only reason 
why I think this, is because any image of London in my mind comes 
from Oliver! the musical....and please, no comments on this.... :)
