Not entirely sure what you mean... you should already be able to see the names of those areas by moving the mouse cursor over them. If you want more control over the text (eg. move it, resize it, add quest/pet/fishing levels, etc.) you can use something like ZoneLevelInfo.

If you want always-on labels (eg. all 25 zone labels shown at the same time when you're viewing the Eastern Kingdoms continent map) then I'm not aware of any addons that do that, sorry.

I think I might know why they don't have labels.

Hmm the names coud all fit in there if the map was not 80% sea and 20% land...
Maybe when its turned by 90 degree the land map woud be bigger...
Or if the names had lines that go to the zones that they belong to.

Yeah, let's rotate the map, eliminate most of the sea, making the land bigger. The labels would fit much better. Just make sure to check the compass rose for real direction.
