यि हुन संसारकै अनौठा नाम भएका १५ सहरहरु !
#15 Boring, Oregon, USA
The town by the name of Boring is a settlement located in the state of Oregon. The origin of the town’s name remains a mystery to many locals and amuses the visitors. The good thing about this name is that it is pretty much self-explanatory and there’s no need to explain how things are there.
#14 Loveladies, New Jersey, USA
How about this for a town name? The founder of this town probably had no better idea to express his love and gratitude to women than name the town like this. The town’s name also probably helps not to forget about the importance of love in their lives.
#13 Wagga Wagga, Australia
This town name looks like something out of the famous Shakira’s song. In reality, the name was derived from a language spoken by the Wiradjuri people, who were the aboriginal inhabitants of the area. In their language “wagga” means “a crow.” There were probably too many crows in this city and they had to put this word in the city’s name twice.
#12 Middelfart, Denmark
The name of this town speaks for itself. The locals have probably grown very tired of the jokes they hear after they tell people who speak English the name of their home town. And they can get a few more laughs after they tell that in Danish Middelfart means “central passage.”
#11 The Bottle, Alabama, USA
Naming the town is a serious matter. The founders of The Bottle in Alabama had probably done some serious thinking with a drink or two before they came up with such an idea for naming the town. Imagine this conversation “Hey, where are you from?” – “I’m from The Bottle, it’s in Alabama.”
#10 Hygiene, Colorado, USA
This is definitely a very helpful town name. It is especially good for raising children, as there is no need to constantly remind them about the importance of hygiene, they are reminded by road signs and inscriptions on the buildings. All they have to do is just believe in the town they live in!
#9 Hot Coffee, Mississippi, USA
If you’re on the road and looking for a short break from driving for a hot cup of coffee, this town will definitely attract your attention if you ever happen to be driving by. In fact going as far as to naming the entire settlement after a beverage is a sure sign of that there is a place where you can get a hot cup of joe in this town.
#8 Okay, Oklahoma, USA
“Okay, so how are things in Okay?” If you didn’t know that Okay was a name of a town, you would probably think that the person who is asking this question is simply crazy. To answer the question though, things in Okay are probably okay.
#7 Dollarbeg, Scotland
A hilarious name, isn’t it? Though it doesn’t seem very appealing to tourists, who might think that the place would be horded with bums asking for change. In reality this is and old town with rich cultural heritage and it features a medieval castle, and it is not overrun with the homeless.
#6 Ii, Finland
This is neither a typo, nor a Latin number on a road sign. This is an actual place in Finland, a municipality named “Ii.” The locals speculate that the name originated from the Sami language and translates as “a place to stay overnight in.”
#5 Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, USA
This name is something out of the famous truth-or-dare game; only instead of dare you get consequences. It’s not very clear why you can’t have both the truth and the consequences, but it appears that the person who came up with this name only had one option.
#4 Why, Arizona, USA
Why name the town Why? The person who came up with this name was probably facing a serious dilemma and couldn’t find the answer to his questions. By naming the town in such a way he added to the headache of other locals who have to explain why they are answering the question about their home town with what sounds like another question.
#3 Acme, West Virginia, USA
You probably remember the fictional Acme Corporation from the "Road Runner" cartoons. Well, the news is that there's actually an entire settlement that bears the name of Acme in West Virginia. It's hard to tell whether there is some correlation between the fictional company and the town name, but it sure does seem like there is.
#2 Bird-in-Hand, Pennsylvania, USA
This town name helps the locals not to forget the old saying “a bird in the hand is better than two in the bush.” This sign pretty much explains the origin, yet it is still too hilarious to be true.
#1 Needmore, Texas, USA
Here’s a good town name to wrap up the article. It kind of arises more questions than it provides the answers and it looks like it’s missing some important part. Need more what? What’s missing in Needmore? You can visit this town and find out for yourself?
