Questions re cell towers and their physical location

On my mobile phone I am looking at information on the cell tower I am connected with. Amongst MCC, MNC, LAC and CellID and I get a cell name too, which is an address.

Does somebody know where this address come from? Is it derived from gps coordinates or is it just data somebody entered in the cell tower's config?

I am asking, because when I check the location of a cell tower on opencellid.org or cellidfinder.com it never fits with the address that I receive from the tower.
