Top Ten Most Peculiar Place Names
The Top Ten
1 Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit, Thailand (better known as Bangkok)
Two names, both of which I must say sound odd. And both, really, are mouthfuls.
I didn't know Bangkok's real name was that long.
2 Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, USA
Notice which country most of these are from...
3 Tightwad, Missouri, USA
This is just plain funny. It's where all Scottish people should live. I'm joking of course...
I dread to think what all the local bars and refill stations are called.
4 Spit Junction, Australia
Don't get caught in the act!
5 Rottenegg, Austria
6 F******, Austria
I was honestly expecting this as #1. I can only imagine English-speaking tourists going past the sign in shock. :D
7 Chicken, Alaska, USA
What are the residents known as? Chickens? Chicks?
8 Chunky, Mississippi, USA

The Contenders
11 Useless Loop, Australia
12 Shitterton, Dorset, England
13 Condom, France
14 Blubberhouses, Yorkshire, UK
Picture it how the people of Yorkshire say it. Then it's funny.
15 Hell, Norway
16 Ding Dong, Texas, USA
Is this where the presumably overly filling American snack with this name comes from?
