No, it is WOBUN, because that's the five letter ATC designator of the intersection the departure goes to. It is indeed in the vicinity of Woburn! The SID only applies for westerly departures: WOBUN 2G for 27L and WOBUN 2F for 27R. The SID for traffic going northerly on 09 departures is the BUZAD. No prizes for guessing where that's near! Now we come to all the other LHR departures: BROOKMANS PARK, COMPTON, DETLING, DOVER, etc.

Er, excuse me while I go and lie down in a darkened room!
