Slap Out, Alabama. Then you have all the American Indian names like Opelika (Big swamp in English), Tuskegee, Tuscumbia, Tuscaloosa, Tallassee. I have seen some weird street signs in Alabama as well like: Moccasin Slide Road, Hog Waller Holler, Possum Trot Lane.

Between, GA. It would be sort of fun to tell people I live in Between. Waugh and Shorter AL have been fun for my kids when headed down I 85. Lots of interesting pronunciations of Waugh. Anything from a guttural hack to ninja noises. Then there’s “Take that exit. It’s Shorter.”

Shorter is where the John Bobbit man moved to if you remember the story after his wife, Lorena took a knife to him.

I was listening to the radio this am and it gave me the idea for this thread. What are some funny, strange, or just off the wall names of towns in your state. Here in Michigan I can think of 2, Hell and Climax.

Opp, AL
Once drove through a town in PA - it was Shickshinney - or something close to that.
Shickshinney is famous!
There is/was a children's book called "The Little Boy from Shickshinney"
It's down the river from Berwick, as I recall.

Just curious - how did you manage to get down off that cross where Blondie left you?
He shot the rope and I tumbled onto the broken bag of gold coins, remember?
