Thread: Funny town names

    Funny town names

    Ah, funny town names... unfortunately there are a lot of them in Denmark. I guess Danish people are retards when it comes to naming towns and such, but let's not get into that :P Do you know any town names that are funny or maybe just weird? - well, then list them here and let everyone else laugh about them too.

    Here are some from Denmark (I'll first write them in Danish, and then what they directly translate into in English):


    - Tarm (Intestine)
    - Lem (Limb)
    - Sæd (Sperm)
    - Esbjerg (Ace Mountain)
    - Næstved (Next to)
    - Ålborg (Eel Castle)
    - Århus (Year House)
    - Støvring (Ring of Dust)
    - Hals (Neck)
    - Skive (Slice)
    - København (Buy a Habour)
    - Vejen (The Road)
    - Middelfart (Medium Speed)
    - Ølgod (Good Beer)

    Breast (I'm not sure if you spell it that way but it sure is pronnounced like that) and Mianus are the only two I can think off the top of my head.

    I'll quote a Finnish comedian and say these towns, though I'll translate them literally into English this time, not Swedish.

    - Voikoski (Butter hurt me)
    - Vammala (Disability)

    Some others:

    - Jyväskylä (Seed village, Ultimecia would love these )
    - Korvatunturi (Ear mountain)
    - Koskenkorva (read: booze)
    - Lima (the capital of Peru, it's also Finnish and means "slime")
    - Raippaluoto (Whip rock)
    - Tervajoki (Tar river)

    Sorry to all the Finns and Peruvian people here if I made fun of your home town.

    It's not a city but over here there's a jail... built on Purgatory Flats. The name of the jail? You guessed it, Purgatory.

    Well, I don't have any funny town names hand, but I do come from a county called CORK. There's a common joke here in Ireland that if the entire country ever sank under water, we'd be the only county to stay afloat... ¬_¬
