Cities, towns, and villages can be named after a bunch of different things – some are named after a river that flows through it, others are named after tribes who lived somewhere around, and others mark a certain historical figure or a ruler. However, today, we’ll look at something totally different – places with funny or unusual names. To make it more interesting, some of the areas on the list won’t actually exist, and it’s your task to figure out which are real and which are fake. Up for a challenge? Off we go!

    I lead a fantastic team of trivia and quiz writers who churn out everything from pop culture and personality quizzes to general knowledge and the occasional oddly specific factoid. Sometimes, I drop a challenge for you myself. I'm especially into anything involving math or logic puzzles—basically, anything that makes your brain do a happy little dance, or gets you frustrated because you definitely should have gotten that right.

    I don't think this was very well researched. Some of these places BP is saying aren't real... Exist and are easily googled.

    Also: the name was changed because tourists kept stealing the sign.
