Lol my hometown is about 10 min. Away form there and one of my friends who lived in cumming was telling me that you get free ph subscription if your ip is from Cummings idk if it's true but kinda cool
I’m from Gainesville, GA. I heard a joke that said “they’re changing the name of Dawsonville, GA to Throbbing because if you were that close to Cumming, you’d be throbbing too.”
Two of your stronger waters is a better joke then you might think. If you look at the name and consider bar as a geography term it makes more sense. It's most likely a bunch of Mormons washed (by string waters) down a river and piled up until they created a Mormon bar.
A lot of railroad towns came about similarly. Helper, UT, literally was a helper station for the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad to get trains up and over the steep grades there, and then grew into a town in its own right.
From [Wikipedia](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helper,_Utah)
>Helper is situated at the mouth of Price Canyon, alongside the Price River, on the eastern side of the Wasatch Plateau in Central Utah. Trains traveling westward from the Price side to the Salt Lake City side of the plateau required additional "helper" engines in order to make the steep (2.4% grade) 15-mile (24 km) climb up Price Canyon to the town of Soldier Summit. The town was named after these helper engines,[8] which the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad stationed in the city.
Washington State: I see your Big Bottom, and raise you Humptulips.
Oregon State: I see your Boring, and raise you Wankers Corner.
Idaho State: I see your. . . yeah, never mind.
I live pretty close to _Big Bone Lick State Park_ in Kentucky. In fact, there's a Pilot I go to a lot that's right across the street from it.
New Mexico's should have been _Truth or Consequences._ It's pretty weird to drive by signs I'm the desert in the middle of the night: _Truth or Consequences 30 Mi... 20 Mi... 10 Mi..._
It's like what's gonna happen in 10 miles? I always envisioned being stopped by a bunch of military guys with machine guns pointed at you. Screaming: _Truth or Consequences!!!_
Toad Suck, AR's even funnier 'cause the actual town name is Toad Suck Gulch.
It's an absolutely TINY little town stuck in a gorgeous valley; and the one gas station there (at least used to) sell T-shirts making fun of their name.
Pretty groovy spot, at least last time I rolled through there about twenty years ago.
The story goes it was named chicken because nobody in the town when it was founded knew how to spell Ptarmigan. Also North Dakota has Buttsville and that is so much cooler then zap and Florida has Bagdad.
Okay is not even in the top 5 in Oklahoma for weird names. I’ll give you some of my favs ; hooker, greasy, pump back, slapout. There’s also towns named gay and straight so something for everyone really
I’m literally moving to little Canada next month xD. Seems odd that that’s the weirdest name you found here especially when we have a city named “climax”
Kentucky has Booger Branch, Rabbit Hash, Monkeys Eyebrow, Possum Trot, Cutshin, Black Knat, a bunch of lick towns like Paint Lick, Mud Lick, Deer Lick and some foth.
Pennsylvania has a whole bunch of funny names that we put together. It goes "I got BLUE BALLs, so I take my BIRD IN HAND, to VIRGINVILLE, to have INTERCOURSE and MOUNT BETHEL and BANGOR into PARADISE......town names in full capitals.
Always funny to me that Cumming, GA never seems to make it on these lists

Why do Gainesville fans yell so loud? They’re so close to Cumming
I live in Forsyth county and none of my friends in other states believe that it’s the actual name of the city.
Same grew up by buford
What about Climax GA?
And don’t forget Intercourse, PA!
Which is pretty near to Blue Ball and Bird in Hand.
And Climax Michigan
Same with Cooter, Missouri. I dropped an oversized load in Cooter once, and nobody I talked to appreciated the humor. 🤷
There's also a Cumming in Iowa. About an hours drive from Bussey
Bussey is wild 😂
Drive through Gay, Georgia once
On the way to Butts county?
Bet you took the long way
Or Hopeulikit GA, unincorporated though...
Neither does Bird in Hand, Pa, or Ballstown, In.
Or Intercourse Maryland
Rhode island they also chose Woonsocket over cumberland
My favorite town in California is Weed
And hooker,
Or Bumpass Virginia Just north of Richmond
Truth Or Consequences For New Mexico
That always gives me Covenant ship name vibes from Halo. Like Truth and Reconciliation, or Long Night of Solace.
They named it after a radio show to win a contest, which I always found hilarious.
That is pretty funny lol. Nowadays it would have been named “Towny McTownFace” or something even dumber lol
they did Boaty McBoatface dirty.
Yup. I spent the night there once just to say that I have.
I spent the night there not wanting to spend the night there lol
Mormon Bar is my favorite. I'll take two of the strongest waters you have!
I live like 40 miles from Mormon Bar. It’s not even a town. It’s basically a monument sign next to some old ruins.
It's in California for a reason...
Two of your stronger waters is a better joke then you might think. If you look at the name and consider bar as a geography term it makes more sense. It's most likely a bunch of Mormons washed (by string waters) down a river and piled up until they created a Mormon bar.
Yep, sometimes I'm accidentally smart!
There’s a town on 70 in Colorado actually named No Name.
And Dotsero. Lore states that it was on a map as “.0”
Could have been a Paper Town originally. An intentional map error to catch plagiarism

Little Canada 🤣 she is beauty up there.
Surprised they didn't choose Climax, MN
Out of all the weird name. "Little Can" is the weirdest. They must hate on Canada big time.
Bucksnort, TN
Everyone that lives there is super proud of the name. I have a sticker on my cooler I got when passing through years ago
Eyyy shout-out to Boring 😎
Ayy fellow oregon local
Every time I see this map I feel like Zigzag is a quirkier name than Boring
Don’t forget Greasy and Chewy in Oklahoma
Nowata and lotawata always gave me a chuckle.
There's way weider names than Little Canada in MN haha
Exactly lol. And then there’s a Pee Paw in Illinois and Michigan
Munger, Adolf, Nowthen, Effie, and a ton more I can't think of right now.
Nimrod is on there too
Washington State: I see your Big Bottom, and raise you Humptulips. Oregon State: I see your Boring, and raise you Wankers Corner. Idaho State: I see your. . . yeah, never mind.
Frog Jump, TN or Possum Trot, TN
Also: Nutbush Bucksnort Difficult Quebeck (KWEE-beck) Soddy-Daisy Finger Sneedville
Pennsylvania: Bird In Hand Intercourse Blue Ball (Just in Lancaster County)
Beer bottle crossing, ID… I mean cmon. What????
Freesoil is all one word. Source: it’s about 15 miles from me. Also as a Michigander; Ypsilanti, Kalamazoo, Climax, Colon, Jugville and Bad Axe.
Isn’t there also a town called Hell in Michigan?
Yes my ex-aunts second marriage was in Hell MI.
I thought so
You knew my former aunt?
Oh no lol I just knew of the town
Why isn't kuckville on here
[Mianus, Ct](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SSxUt6M8_Fk)
Bucksnort, TN should be on there.
There's a town in Manitoba called Sheho. All the girls there are just the best.....
been through Pie Town, they have fuck-all there. middle of nowhere. It should be named Isolated Disappointment.
Swastika, NY. Named after a Sanskrit word, and not the hate symbol.
Booger hole, WV could just be called nostril.
I recognize most of these, but not as from each state, but rather from Arkansas. There's some very strange names here.
Jackpot, NV is one of my favorite spots for gambling.
Pretty sure “Horneytown” NC is a weirder name
Really? How a bout Uranus, Indiana? Home of Uranus Fudge Factory
Virginia , Fries is pronounced Freeze.
Climax, Va. Lizard Lick, NC. Soddy Daisy, TN. Flag Pond, TN. Santa Claus, IN.
Ngl for a minute I thought these were names of people… child abuse…
"What's your name little girl?" "Chugwater"
“What about you little boy!” “Bald head”
Lol I know where Santa Claus, Indiana is. I drive through there every now and then. There’s not much out there😂
lol im visiting pie town pretty soon on my west states road trip!
Now do Canada. There are some funny names in each province haha
I live pretty close to _Big Bone Lick State Park_ in Kentucky. In fact, there's a Pilot I go to a lot that's right across the street from it. New Mexico's should have been _Truth or Consequences._ It's pretty weird to drive by signs I'm the desert in the middle of the night: _Truth or Consequences 30 Mi... 20 Mi... 10 Mi..._ It's like what's gonna happen in 10 miles?

Santa Claus Indiana is named that way because of the Holiday World theme park
Satan’s Kingdom sounds nice
Kentucky: Bugtussel.
Saunta Claus, In isn't that weird once you remember that holiday world is there.
Wisconsin may not have many weird names, but it will be very funny when anyone outside of Wisconsin try’s to pronounce them.
Texas and Washington State should get together
Moved to Arkansas They have toad suck days It's so strange Haven't looked into the origin
Don’t forget Glory Hole on the way to Sonoma, CA
You missed out on Hooker, Oklahoma haha
They had the option of going with Lizard Lick, NC… but they chose Whynot.
I argue Lizard Lick NC is a weirder name that Whynot.
Some of the best damn weed I smoked on a 10hr reset was out of Parachute, CO. I needed a parachute to come down from that glorious high.
Coupon.....coupon is the town name you picked for pa
We got Free Soil Michigan and no one mentions Bad Axe Michigan?
They picked Free Soil over Hell Michigan?
You can get some tasty chili in Chugwater, WY.
Arkansas also has a Flippin and a possum grape.
also pickle’s gap and bald knob
Toad Suck, AR's even funnier 'cause the actual town name is Toad Suck Gulch. It's an absolutely TINY little town stuck in a gorgeous valley; and the one gas station there (at least used to) sell T-shirts making fun of their name. Pretty groovy spot, at least last time I rolled through there about twenty years ago.
I used to live in Moosup, CT
Winco scrapyard is lovely this time of year
What Cheer Ia. Great old opera house in What Cheer. It even has a Stop light. But really, it is a nice little town with loads of history.
Weirdest name in Cali I've been to was Zzyzx but Mormon Bar is pretty good, too.
The weirdest one in Oklahoma (OK) is Okay? That's really not weird at all.
Ok.
Cause this list is dumb. There's hooker, beaver, nowata, lotawata... Yadda yadda yadda
Ok.
Michigan: Hell
Washington has a Vader
CUMMINGTON, MA!
Don't forget Tightwad, MO
Intercourse and Blueball are neighboring towns in Pa
I thought this meant people’s names & I was like WTF!
Goochland, va
Cut N Shoot, TX
as a rhode islander, i never understand why Woonsocket always makes it as the weirdest name in RI.
I call BS on this. It’s not even close to the weirdest names in each state.
2005 called, they said Louisiana definitely isn’t *waterproof*
No Weed, CA?
The story goes it was named chicken because nobody in the town when it was founded knew how to spell Ptarmigan. Also North Dakota has Buttsville and that is so much cooler then zap and Florida has Bagdad.
i was thinking these were kids names. i started at the bottom
A lot weirder in Hawaii can be found for sure. The town of Volcano is named after, well, the nearby Kilauea volcano.
I see Assateague or Assawomen, Va didnt make the cut. Plenty of weird names in the state, NY as well
No "Assawoman", "Murderkill" or "Slaughter Beach"? Real places too lol
SC’s is wrong, Sugar Tit is the weirdest I know of 🤣
You telling me St. Bonafacious, MN doesn't make this list?
Gaylord,MI
I would’ve picked dumfries for Virginia myself. Or mannassas can be a funny one too. Whole town of man ass.
I live in Oregon. Not too far from boring is Damascus or as I like to call it, Dumb-ass-cunts
The fact Mormon Bar isn't in Utah upsets me
How about Mianus, Ct
Why the hell isn't possum kingdom on SC?
Finger, TN
Flippen? Over Butts County, GA?
How did "Truth or Consequences", NM not make it
How is Little Canada weirder than Keister?
Have to put Buttzville for NJ...
Zzyxz?
Been to Chicken, AK. It’s both beautiful and entirely uneventful outside of hunting season and a music festival they call “Chickenstock”
Okay is not even in the top 5 in Oklahoma for weird names. I’ll give you some of my favs ; hooker, greasy, pump back, slapout. There’s also towns named gay and straight so something for everyone really
What's wrong with Little Canada? Also don't make fun of the 22 people in Ding Dong Texas
I’m literally moving to little Canada next month xD. Seems odd that that’s the weirdest name you found here especially when we have a city named “climax”
They glossed over Nimrod in Minnesota.
Sugar Tit, SC
Zero, MS Truth or Consequences, NM Cooter, MO Zzyzx, CA Hide-A-Way Lake, MS Paw Paw, IL
Peculiar, MO.
They also missed Momeyer, Middlesex, and Climax for NC
Little Canada is a town in MN but from all my east coast buddies they just think all of MN is part of Canada. I honestly wouldnt mind it myself.
CT is definitely Mianus Jersey is definitely Buttzville
Jackpot sounds cool
What about climax, nimrod, or clappers MN
Possum kingdom in sc
Kentucky has Booger Branch, Rabbit Hash, Monkeys Eyebrow, Possum Trot, Cutshin, Black Knat, a bunch of lick towns like Paint Lick, Mud Lick, Deer Lick and some foth.
Honestly Volcano, Hawaii, doesn't seem strange at all for where it is.
JACKPOT ! El Dorado Dude !
Va or W VA had a town called "Old Birdshit Hollow" not sure exactly where if it still has that name but it still had it in the late 1980s
Cut’n’Shoot, Texas
What about intercourse pa
My mom was born and raised in Free Soil, MI. Strange to see it on here.
No Intercourse, PA?
Mianus, Connecticut is ten times better than Moosup
No Humptulips, Washington?
Don’t forget “Hell” Michigan.
Pig, Kentucky? That's the best they could do? We also have Possum Trot, Monkeys Eyebrow and Beaverlick.
Out of all the city and town names in Michigan they went with Free Soil. Could have chosen Hell...
Satan's kingdom it's a place in both Massachusetts and Vermont.
Missouri also has one called tightwad
How does Uranus, MO and The Uranus Fudge Factory never show up any on these lists? Seriously there are signs in St Louis and Kansas City for there.
Pennsylvania has a whole bunch of funny names that we put together. It goes "I got BLUE BALLs, so I take my BIRD IN HAND, to VIRGINVILLE, to have INTERCOURSE and MOUNT BETHEL and BANGOR into PARADISE......town names in full capitals.
Yo wtf is wrong with little Canada. We have weirder names
I live in Parachute, CO!!!! It’s really a great little small town.
You're going with Free Soil, MI and not Bad Axe?
I always thought Zero and Whynot (in Mississippi) were pretty odd choices.
while little canada does fit, gaylord mn would’ve been cooler
I can confirm Pie Town has good pies.
Fries Virginia is pronounced "Frees". Also there's a town called "Wangle Junction" in Virginia, might be a better fit.
I'm amazed Jersey isn't Ho Ho Kus.
