When you start digging through Google, you realize how lucky you are that you live in, for example in L.A. or New York, Sidney, London, Toronto, Chicago, Paris, and so on. When someone asks you: “Where are you from”, you tell him the name of your home town with local patriotism.
Maybe names of some places sound funny to you, but that is nothing compared to a small village in Austria that is called Fucking… Residents of Fucking in Austria tried seven years ago to change the name of the village since they are being swamped by tourists because of the name. In the end the vote failed because the majority was against it. Namely, residents of this village realized that the popularity is bringing them money are presents a lucrative business.
Fucking is not the only crazy name of the town, place, or village in the world. You probably never heard for Condom, Penis-town or Dildo. Men will be happy to know that there is a Hooker, Oklahoma, Titty in England and mountain Whisky dick.
In Die Hard you surely won’t find Bruce Willis, in Boring you certainly won’t be bored, while you will definitely go around the mountain in Carolina, called Kill Devils Hills. In the city Hell is not hot at all. Actually, you will likely freeze to death. Interesting is that all places in this town-from the stores to the movie, theater have very strange names. You can have an ice cream in a pastry shop “Scream”, or grab a bite in a fast food restaurant “Hell in a Handbasket”.
Perhaps the most fascinating is a name of a place in Wales.
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, one of longest toponymes in the world, but its resident call it brefly Llanfairpwllgwyngyll.
Perhaps, the smartest are the resident of a small place in Colorado that wrote on the entrance to the town “No name”. What is sure, is sure.
