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

Wendy says
MAINE ME!!!
I see someone has already mentioned Climax, MI and Hell, MI, but back when I was in college I had the misfortune of my car breaking down in Turkeyville, MI. I sure felt like a turkey.
Big Bone Lick, KY always makes me laugh.
Peggy says
MAINE ME! Kill Devil Hills, NC.
Torey says
MAINE ME
When we lived in PA a long time ago we frequently drove by a little Amish town named “Intercourse”. . . always a little strange to see. Also used to visit a funny town in Indiana named Shipshewana (I think it’s spelled that way).
Lauren says
“MAINE ME”
Ever hear of Unalaska, Alaska? Too funny.
brittany says

Hell, Michigan and I went to college in Kalamazoo, which people outside of Michigan always find hilarious sounding for some reason :)

Katy says
MAINE ME! Shout out to my adopted home state–Waterville, ME, anyone! But also, Unawatuna, Sri Lanka, which sounds just like it reads.
Kathryn J says
MAINE ME!
My grandparents lived in Kissimmee, FL. We’re Italian so we’d always joke around like “ay, Kissa me!”
Liz Mann says
“MAINE ME!”
Jenna says
MAINE ME!
I always giggle when I drive from Las Vegas (home town) to Pheonix, AZ. There’s a tiny town called “Nothing”. Seriously, there is… Nothing, AZ
Catherine says
Maine Me!
Always thought it was confusing that Culpeper, Va isn’t spelled “Culpepper”.
Jessica says
MAINE ME! I live in Cynthiana, KY. The story goes that the guy had two daughters, one names Cynthia, and the other Anna, and he put their names together to name the city.
Kate says
Maine Me!!
The first oddly-named town that comes to mind is Intercourse, PA. We drove through there on a middle school trip waaaaay back in the day, and you can imagine how much we were giggling.
osarah says
MAINE ME!
There’s a town called Dime Box in Texas, but your reference to Kennebunkport as K-town reminded me of Kaiserslautern in Germany, which many members in the US military refer to as K-town. The one exit in Germany that always makes us laugh, though, is Fuchs Büchel.
Laura S. says
MAINE ME!!!
Kelly says
MAINE ME! Please!

MAINE ME!
As the 1900th comment, I’m going to guess someone has already mentioned Hell, Michigan… but oh well!
Elizabeth says
MAINE ME!
Weird city name… my husband is from Muenster, Tx… like the cheese. And I think the city used to be one of the largest cheese manufacturers in the state. Bunch of sweet Germans!
Jen T says
MAINE ME!
There’s a Valentine, TX that gets a ton of cards every Feb. 14!
Kathie Martin says
MAINE ME!
One of these days my family and I are going to visit Maine and gobble up all the wonderful seafood we can eat and enjoy as many vistas along the beautiful rocky coast we can visit. And, of course, shop in great places like Spaces Kennebunkport.
Unusual names of cities? Just outside of Orlando, Florida is a city named Dr. Phillips…can you imagine saying “I live in Dr. Phillips”? Alabama has quite a few interesting names, but one of the most interesting pronunciations is for Arab, Ala. Emphasis on the capital A as in a-rab.
Kelsey D. says
MAINE ME!!
I can’t think of any towns with funny names, but I am loving this store!! :)
Megan says
MAINE ME!
I cant think of any town that hasnt already been named. I love the stuff in this shop and I may convince the hubby to take a trip there with me before our “wee one” arrives!
Vonda says
MAINE ME!
There’s some pretty funny ones in NC, especially if you mispronounce or overpronounce them. Some of them we see every year on the way to Emerald Isle: Beulaville, Murfreesboro, Pollocksville, Shallotte (not Charlotte and not supposed to be pronounced like the onion family shallot), Dortches. HMM, Maybe it’s just funny to us as we entertain ourselves on the 3 1/2 hour drive!!
Penny says
MAINE ME! My husband told me about these towns: Last Chance, CO and Worms, NE.
Tammy Moore: MamaBearStamps says
MAINE ME!
I know there are a ton but I can only think of Fairy, TX right now. :) My husband lived in the next town over for a while.
Susie says
MAINE ME! PA has a ton of ridiculous town names… Blue Ball, Intercourse, Bird-In-Hand
Julie says
MAINE ME!
I grew up in Pennsylvania, and there is a town near Lancaster called Bird-in-Hand.
Elizabeth says
Maine Me!
I live in DC and always get a weird look from visitor’s when I mention the Foggy Bottom area.
Katie says
Maine Me! Awesome store!
Shan says
Maine Me!!
Allison says
MAINE ME!!
Caryn says
MAINE ME!
One of my dearest friends from college was from Telephone, TX and I always thought that was such an odd name for the tiny town.
