That’s because Spaces Kennebunkport– the shop behind today’s prize- embodies just the type of comfortable seaside home accents that Sherry and I love. Never mind that we can barely spell the name… we still want to eat up everything in their store. Have no fear if you also can’t make it out to K-town. Spaces Kennebunkport has an awesome

I’ve seen Gobblers Crossing, AL! I think that’s funny.
Hilary says
Maine Me!
I’m not sure how interesting it is but I live near Loveland, OH. and it has a castle no less! (I love the stuff from this store. It looks very cool!)
Emily Friend says
MAINE ME!
We live a short drive from Santa Claus, Indiana where there are streets named Reindeer Drive, Jingle Bell Way, etc. The main attraction there is Holiday World, a holiday themed theme park!

Just camped out for Memorial Day at a lake in Memphis, Nebraska… who knew?
Jessica says

I’m lame. I don’t have any cool stories about outrageously named cities.
Danielle Plomaritas says
MAINE ME! Though I have not been there, my hubby loves to talk about visiting Hell, Michigan.
Teresa K says
Maine Me! I’ve always wanted to go to Hot Coffee, Texas.
Katie G says
MAINE ME!!
It’s not too weird, but we drove though Hutchinson, Kansas one year and had to stop to eat dinner. Hutchinson is my maiden name and I remember feeling like I owned the town or something!
Emily Baer says
MAINE ME!
I must sound really boring right now because I can’t think of any funny named places that I have been. I do live in Santa Cruz, CA, which is a beautiful place though!
Kimberly says
MAINE ME!!!
Jolene says
Main ME!
I live in KY and around me there are towns called Possom Trot and Monkey’s Eyebrow. I love those names!
Cheryl says
Maine me!
Lizard Lick, NC. Yes, it’s a real place…
melissa mattingly says
MAINE ME! I can’t think of a city, but I think school mascots associated w/ cities are funny. I grew up a Slicer and now I’m a coach for the Sparkplugs.
jaci says
MAINE ME!
i’ve worked all over the great state of minnesota and encountered plenty of weird names, but one of my favorites is minneota, minnesota (..really?)
Emily says
MAINE ME!
So this is a road name and not a city name, but in my parent’s town there is a Booger Swamp Road.
Jason says
“Maine Me”
Kristen says
MAINE ME!
I still think one of the funniest place names is a state park we used to pass when driving through Kentucky – Big Bone Lick State Park. Cracked me up every time I passed the exit sign.
Susan says
Maine me! We always drove through Los Banos, CA on our way to the beach. Los Banos is Spanish for “The Bathrooms.” Our son’s giggles filled the car for a good half hour every trip. Good times.
Carson Chambers says
MAINE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I live in Tampa but what about Sopchoppy, Homosassa, Elfin, Howey-in-the-Hills, and Weeki Wachee, Florida (where they have a “mermaid” theme park where women wearing mermaid costumes breathe underwater with tube-like hoses). I’ve been to them all and they are all strange little places :-)
Melanie says
“Maine Me”
Ronkonkoma, NY… try to pronounce it. No one outside Ny ever can!
Tasha says
MAINE ME! I dont have any funny city names but I hope I win!
Sarah says
MAINE ME!
I live in Mt. Pleasant, SC. which sounds fictional to me. Also, there are no mountains. There arne’t even hills.
Right out side of here is a little town called Ashepoo.
Angela says
MAINE ME!
Hands down the weirdest name of a town I have ever seen is Blue Balls, PA. Intercourse is a close second.
Sarah S says
MAINE ME!
One of the suburbs near Cincinnati is Loveland, Ohio. I hear people will drive to the Loveland post office to send Valentine’s cards just for the postmark! Also, it cracks me up when cities have a foreign names, but pronounce it phonetically, sounding almost hick-ish. Examples are Versailles, KY (pronounced ver-sails) and Bellefontaine, OH (pronounced bell-fountain).
Mallory says

We used to live in Bagdad, Florida:)

Claudie says
Maine Me!
I’ve passed by the sign for Big Bone Lick State Park many times and can’t help but giggle every single time. Apparently, it’s located in Big Bone, Kentucky which also makes me giggle uncontrollably, lol.
Keara says
MAINE ME!
The only one I can think of is Santa Claus, IN, but that’s probably going to be a popular answer! :)
Micalla says
MAINE ME!
I went to school in St. Louis and there is a town called Paris, MO that I always saw signs for when I drove home (to Kansas City)
Emma says
MAINE ME!!
Liz says
Maine me please! I haven’t lived in any funny named town and I can’t really think of any place we’ve been to with a weird town name. Maybe that should be the focus for our next road trip :)
Heidi says
MAINE ME!!!
I haven’t lived in any towns that are too funny, but I used to drive through Hometown, PA all the time on my way to school. I always thought that was funny,
“where’s your hometown?”
“Hometown, PA!”
kristin says

I’ve never been, but I once heard a song about a lake in Massachusetts called Lake Chargoggonmnmnoaoananoorognonmanoerg .. I did not make this up!
