American City Names

“What's in a name?” said Romeo to Juliet in the Shakespeare play. What, indeed?

The United States of America is known as a great nation. It's the home of baseball, Mickey Mouse, the refrigerator, the White House, Sesame Street, American football, toilet paper, Michael Jordan, blue jeans, Coca-Cola, zippers, crayons, Band-aids, chocolate-chip cookies, Elvis Presley and his guitar, “Star Wars,” the Golden Gate Bridge, Madonna, microwave ovens and disposable diapers. America has produced great thinkers and historians, fine athletes, famous movie stars, talented artists and performers, outstanding inventors and scientists, well-known political figures and world leaders.

Amid all the great things about America though, is one thing that some people may not know: America is also home to some of the funniest, most bizarre and outrageous city and street names. They're definitely a far cry from the more popular US city names like New York City, Washington D.C., Chicago, San Francisco, Detroit, Miami, Houston, San Diego or Las Vegas. These street names are also way more creative than 5th Avenue, West Street, Main Road, Park's Place, High Street, South Boulevard or Exchange Square.

So check out the rest of americancitynames.com for a taste of America's knack for naming. Laugh at the hilarious stuff people have come up, wonder at what some of them were thinking when they named their cities, twist your tongue just trying to say a few of the words while appreciating the wild imagination and enjoying the grand sense of humor America has. That's what's in a name
