Who decided these names for places?

[Whisper]

Finland is full of places with weird names like
- Varkaus = theft
- Mulkkusaari = Dick Island
- Kivesjärvi = Testicle Lake (where do you think Dick Island is )
- Horo = whore, slut
- Isomulkku = Big Dick
- Pikkumulkku = Little Dick (of course...)
- Myrkky = Poison
- Saaranpaskantamasaari = hmm, basically this means an island that Saara (woman's name) created by shitting...

Okay, this list could go on and on so let's go to Fucking next...

From Wikipedia:
Fucking is an Austrian village in the municipality of Tarsdorf, in the Innviertel region of western Upper Austria. The village is 33 kilometres (21 mi) north of Salzburg, 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) east of the German border.










Or how about Dildo, a town on the island of Newfoundland, in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada...




Makes me wonder how these names were given...

We have many of these in Italy too, just a short example:

-Belsedere = Beautiful ass
-Orgia = Orgy
-Fallo = Penis
-Sesso = Sex

:thinking::thinking:

in the US, there is a town in Pennsylvania called "Intercourse"






After seeing the names in Finland, I know that Whisper is living in the right place! :rofl::rofl:

Obviously, those names have different meanings if they're found in non-English speaking country. It's a vulgar coincidence LOL

Fucking also has it's own brand of beer: "Fucking Hell" - hell meaning "light" in german, as a term related to beer products it's a variation of pale lager.
Anyway: The path to hell is paved with good intentions ^^

Well, I guess this does have sort of a sexual connotation to it. There is small village, population 60, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan that's named Gay. It has one tavern, which not surprisingly is named The Gay Bar. The village is known for its 4th of July parade which they call The Gay Parade. Hmmmm, I wonder if they have a bathhouse?
