Some Worst City Names in the World

Some list of REAL (and real funny) city names. Would you ever live in these place?

1. Cockburn, Western Australia
Although this name is often pronounced "Coburn" by those who stand to lose from its awfulness, who actually reads that when they see this word?

2.Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu, New Zealand
Locals call this hill in Hawke's Bay "Taumata"

3.Titty Hill, Sussex, England

4.Thong, Kent, England

5. Bald Knob, Arkansas, United States

6. Cockup, Cumbria, England
Cumbria is a county in the very north-west of England. What the backwoods of Alabama are to America is what Cumbria is to Britain. They talk funny up there. Thus, it isn't thoroughly surprising that they have a town called Cockup. What do you call someone from this place? A Cockupper? Cockupeleite? Cockuppian? Cockupican?

7.Whiskey Dick Mountain, Washington State, United States

8.Hookersville, West Virginia
Undoubtedly named before "hooker" meant "prostitute who picks men up on street corners," Hookersville combines two crimes of place-naming. One, a dirty sounding adjective "Pleasant"? "Sunny"? "Happy" And two, they added "ville" to the end of the town's name.

9.Hell, Michigan, United States

10.Horneytown, North Carolina, United States
Its proximity to Hookersville, West Virginia is no coincidence. Like Hookersville, the naming of Horneytown took place before "horney" meant "aching for a hot piece of ass" with an extra "e".

11.Disappointment, Kentucky, United States

12.Fucking, Austria
