Way back in ancient times (the 1950’s) phones were connected to something called an ‘exchange’. It was a central local office that could handle around 10,000 numbers. Your exchange would have a name, typically your neighborhood, so your individual phone number would start with the first two or three letters of the exchange, followed by four digits.
