so-called

Google (just for the UK) gives 15 hits for \"so-called Seveso directive\" and none for \"so-named Seveso directive\". Worldwide, Google gives 86 hits for \"so-called Seveso directive\", but still none for \"so-named Seveso directive\".
So I\'m not the only one who wouldn\'t say \"so-named\"...
