One that springs to mind is a small town in the USA called Mianus. Another from the UK is Fingringhoe

Got any more funny ones ? :-)




Missdressed -> RE: Funny Place Names (7/29/2013 2:00:18 PM)

I know of the Semicock Road

Here in Arkansas: toad suck, bald knob, monkey run, turkey scratch, sweet lips, and wiener.

We also have a Bald Knob here in Australia as well as 'Come By Chance'.........and there is another of those in Newfoundland. There are also a couple of villages I remember in England called 'Little Piddle' and 'Great Piddle'. Thee was also a town near where I lived in Germany for a while, called 'Fuck'. I actually took a pic of my (now ex) wife standing under the town sign *smile*.

I can't think of any towns with funny names, but there are some funny street names: Godown Road, Cherry Bottom Road, and Hard Road. There is also a Licking County -- really. And the hospital there is called Licking Memorial.

No, there is actually a place here




tommonymous -> RE: Funny Place Names (7/29/2013 8:16:33 PM)

In MN, we have a town called Fertile, and one called Climax. I actually read a newspaper headline in a local paper "Fertile Woman Dies in Climax".

No, I'm not kidding.




MasterCaneman -> RE: Funny Place Names (7/29/2013 8:49:50 PM)

Don't forget Possum Grape which is right up 67/167 from Bald Knob.

No TNDK didn't make up the name Bald Knob,it is located north and a little east of Little Rock on Hwy 67/167.Not sure how it got it's name but it is right where the flat land of Arkansas ends and the Ozark mountains start.

Hiya Jola ,

How about Shittingbourne Lane in London, where they put the first public convenience in 1840, it's been renamed now. Humourless sods!

Also Cockermouth in Cumbria, the north of England [:)].

Cockintake Staffordshire

Cockplay........Northumberland

My fave Spanker Lane in Derbyshire




myotherself -> RE: Funny Place Names (7/30/2013 5:10:38 AM)

I used to live near Pity Me in Durham. When I lived in the south, there was Snodland (which just sounds weird) and Pratt's Bottom.




AliceMajesty -> RE: Funny Place Names (7/30/2013 5:18:57 AM)

We have Vintrosa in Sweden, which doesn't sound funny to you until you know that Vin means wine and Trosa means panties. Basically the town is called wine-panties, which is a slang for when middle-aged women get drunk off wine and pee themselves a little.




MissKittyDeVine -> RE: Funny Place Names (7/30/2013 5:28:05 AM)

Let's not omit the immortal Gropecunt Lane in London ... well, it would have been immortal if it hadn't been renamed.




DarkSteven -> RE: Funny Place Names (7/30/2013 5:56:09 AM)

A Kiwi friend of mine visited the States for the first time, and some friends took her to Intercourse, PA. That's close to Bird-In_Hand. And of course Blue Ball.
