I was trying to get to sleep last night and I thought how wierd the name of my street was... So, I thought I'd make a thread for people to post the names of their streets!

I'll start of course:

Sunny Close

The Grove, which makes sense given the small forest across the road.

My street is called West Meadow. I believe Rye told me that this is some foreign language for Raistlin. I don't know if it's true, though.

Glenn Arrow Drive. I like to pretend it's the Glenn from Chrono Trigger so I can tell stories to my teddy bears during tea time.

I'd tell you, but quite clearly you're an internet rapist.

I think it's called Farm Circle. Weird, considering I can't see any farms from my house. >_>

My home street got the most generic name ever - Main Square. :cry:
But then, the view is good.

my subdivision is fairly new, but I think like 98% of them are named after soldiers from war.
Mine's Gatehouse, but there is no poppy beside the name, so I don't think it's named after a soldier.

Greenwich. I'm not sure if it's a common noun or a combo of a color and a...what's a wich? *checks*

Wick \Wick\, or Wich \Wich\, n. [AS. w[=i]c village, fr. L. vicus. In some names of places, perhaps fr. Icel. v[=i]k an inlet, creek, bay. See Vicinity, and cf. Villa.] 1. A street; a village; a castle; a dwelling; a place of work, or exercise of authority; -- now obsolete except in composition; as, bailiwick, Warwick, Greenwick. --Stow.

Yeah that.

Before that, I lived on Clydesdale, which is a type (breed?) of horse. It's also a family name, but I don't know the origin of my streets.
