Funny Nace Plames.

Some of my fav place names with a suspect name...

First off, the two Twatts:


Twatt on the Shetland Islands, which is not to be confsued with the completely different:


Twatt in the Orkney Islands.

Remember to check folks, as arriving in the wrong Twatt can be awkward.




Some other good places in England include: (all genuine)

Minge Lane, Worcestershire, England

Bell End, Birmingham, England

Fingringhoe, Essex, England

Back Passage, City of London, an alleyway in the EC1 postal district

Slag Lane, Merseyside, a residential street in Haydock, England

Cockshoot Close, Oxfordshire, England

Funbag Drive, Watford, England

Fanny Avenue, Derbyshire, England

Cockermouth, Allerdale, Cumbria

Ladygate Lane, Ruislip

And my own personal fav - Friars' Entry, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England.




Not to be out done, those 'four rian' people you might have heard of, have some good ones of their own.

If you ever find yourself in the east of Hong Kong's Kowloon Peninsula, and need to let off steam, be sure to take a trip down:


Here is one cross roads you might like to look up next time you are in New York:


And back to the UK for Dale Wintons fav village:

Which is in the Dorset village of Corfe Mullen.

Post any good ones you can find.

Not quite as amusing as some of the above... but how would you ask for directions to somewhere with a name like this?

Oh man where to start. Close to where I grew up there is Tokers Green and a Pishill. An old university friend of my lived in the USA for a bit and his town had a laundrette/dry cleaners called "Beaver Cleaners".



The definitive list including the town of F***ing in Austria http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:SP-KP/ToDo/salvage2 and my favourite
