It was still the "Lexington" even though that part of it didn't actually run under that avenue. There were, and still are, lines that bear the name of a street that the line only runs over/under for part of its route. One of them was the Fulton St el which bore the name even though after 1940 the Fulton St portion of the line west of Rockaway Av had been demolished. Another is the IND "Smith St Line" which retains that name even on the portion S/O Smith/9 St that doesn't actually run under Smith St.
