Interesting/Funny Town Names

[Flick James]

I remember a thread about this some time ago, but I still find it an enjoyable topic. Here in Arizona there are lots of interesting/funny town names, such as Suprise, Tuba City, Carefree, Show Low and, of course, the infamous Tombstone.

I ran across one today that cracked me up: Point Blank, Texas.

I just get this strange feeling that not too many people break into houses in Point Blank, Texas.

There's always Intercourse, Pennsylvania.  A classic funny town name.  But there's plenty more!

Seman, Alabama
Bloody Diick, Montana
Cockland, Ohio
Glasscock, Ohio
Zip Down, Pennsylvania
Maggie's Nipple, Wyoming
Spuzzum, Canada
Titty Ho, England
Anus, France
Sexmoan, Philippines

I can keep going, but feel free to check this website where I found these towns:

Hell, Michigan

I've always been fond of French Lick.

Hell, Michigan

I grew up in Michigan, and the story we used to get told of the origin was a prominent citizen (the one whose trading post the town grew up around) asked what they should call the new settlement, and he didn't want to give one.  Pressed, he said, "Call it hell for all I care!"   

Michigan also has a town called Badaxe.  Yeah.

I was born in a city called Bulawayo in what was then Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe. That city's original name in Ndebele was Gubulawayo which roughly translated means "place of the killing"  .

Strange place to be born in, huh? Her Serene Highness Princess Charlene of Monaco was also born there.

Oddly enough, James, one of my good friends is from Point Blank!!!

Texas certainly has some odd place names:
Bugtussle
Muleshoe
Gun Barrell City

And some geographic names as well:
Italy
Palestine
Paris
Holland

There's lots more; those are just the ones I've been to!
