Unusual Place Names
I saw a post this morning from a lady in Delaware, Ohio. I thought that sounds different. It made me think of a town back home called Wyoming, Rhode Island. I've often wondered how it got its name. Do you have any places you'd like to share?

Where I live often causes confusion -- West New York, New Jersey. There is an East New York; it's in....New York. How about Intercourse, Pa, and I had a friend who lived in Defiance, Ohio, maybe not so unusual but I liked the way it sounded.
