Interesting town names

Have you ever been traveling in the car and you notice the town you are in has a name that makes you giggle? You sometimes think what were they possibly thinking when they named the town that. Most towns are named after people who founded them or a president. How many states have a city or town named Madison? Quite a few of them. Some funny town names are only funny if you mispronounce them like Butte Montana. 

Here are some funny town names:

Boar Tush, Alabama

Frog Eye, Alabama

Eek, Alaska

Rabbit Hash, Kentucky

Crappo, Maine

Hog Jaw, Arkansas

Slaughter Beach, Delaware 

Cranky Corner, Louisiana

Stalker, Pennsylvania  

Ding Dong, Texas

Frostproof, Florida

Blowing Rock, North Carolina

Santa Claus, Indiana

Punkin Center, Kansas

Idiot, Oregon 

Boody, Illinois

Boring, Oregon

Disco, Tennessee

Toad Suck, Arkansas

They will really name a place whatever they want. I am not sure if this next list of towns that were named after food were named because they really like it or if it has to do with the history of each item.

Here’s some towns that are food inspired:

Two Egg, Florida

Bacon, Indiana

Ham Lake, Minnesota

Oatmeal, Texas 

Hot Coffee, Mississippi

Sandwich, Massachusetts

Spuds, Florida

Sugar City, New Mexico

Tortilla, Arizona

Lick Fork, Virginia

Chocolate Bayou, Texas 

Bread Loaf, Vermont

Fork, North Carolina

There has to be some story behind each of the town’s names. I hope this post made you smile. I have noticed that every state has funny town names. Please remember, don’t judge a town by its name.
