    A lot of work's gone into this. I live in Norwich UK and I've never heard of Hooker Hill - maybe we have another name for it - but I do know Horn Pie Road.
  • KReneeC Apr 14, 2012 @ 5:57 pm | delete
    Too funny, I know of a "Tittikaka" road!!!

    Some are quite amusing while others are quite shocking! Seems people around the world like to inject laughter in their streets. Nice lens, very well researched!!

    I thought Anthrax Street was awkward...
  • jimmyworldstar Dec 8, 2011 @ 2:38 pm | delete
    I can't believe some of them like Farfrompoopen Road actually got certified. I hope most of these are private and not public roads.

    There's a lot of strange names, but I'm sure there's an explanation why they name that street that way. :)

    Wow titwobble was a real person

    Poopless!
  • Brian Griffin Apr 26, 2011 @ 3:32 am | delete
    Too funny. The Titwobble street was apparently named after a guy named "Tittwobbler' LOL... and to top it off he lives in a town in Texas called Pfugerville... Seriously! Here's a link.

    I've driven by or through a number of the oddly named places in England, and have had dinner at a couple of versions of Sodburys. Some of the place names make me laugh every time I see them.
  • bobby Feb 28, 2011 @ 12:14 pm | delete
    hahahahahah some of those are realllllllllly funnnnny(:
  • Ka'ōnohi Feb 17, 2011 @ 5:16 pm | delete
    You guys spelled the Hawai'i place names wrong. They're spelled Pe'epe'e and Po'opo'o. They're Hawaiian names not English "scatological" names.

    There's a Peculiar Drive near my house.

    It actually used to be a highway. Now it's just a side road.
  • Margo_Arrowsmith Nov 2, 2010 @ 9:07 pm | delete
    Oh, and we have a little tiny, non incorporated town around here called Lizard Lick. It has a Lizard Lick Ave, which I have a picture of.
  • Margo_Arrowsmith Nov 2, 2010 @ 9:05 pm | delete
    I love this! Imagine spending ten's of thousands of dollars on a house, hundreds of thousands and having to tell people you live on Butt Wynd or Tumbledown Dick! I wouldn't buy or I would demand a name change!
  • emerald125 Oct 17, 2010 @ 9:38 pm | delete
    Hi I love this sort of trivial stuff :-) I have one for your list... Kissing Point Road in Australia
  • footknight Dec 12, 2010 @ 3:59 pm | delete
    i have a couple of really cool and rather diffrent road names, theres Togo rd, White Elephant rd, and Ourtoland rd (pronounced OUR TWO LAND)
  • Irenemaria Oct 11, 2010 @ 7:36 am | delete
    Oh my goodness! I just wish I could translate some road names in Sweden for you. but the funny part come out lame.... typical. Thanks for all these smiles!

    I didn't giggle. I laughed :)
  • cdcraftee Jul 14, 2010 @ 1:07 pm | delete
    How do you like Fartch Road, on our way to Mount Gambier, in South Australia? Sounds obscene, somehow...just glad we don't live there!
  • Margaret Jordan Jun 16, 2010 @ 2:26 pm | delete
    Think these are great ideas! Love em!! Especially Bun Barrel Dr and/or Gunpowder Lane/Drive...May even use one. Thanks

  • smange Feb 14, 2010 @ 1:43 am | delete
    There's a street in Adelaide (Australia) called "Bent St". After almost all the stoners in Adelaide stole the sign (it got replaced frequently) they eventually painted the sign on the wall nearest to the street corner. :)
  • Magtic Feb 12, 2010 @ 10:20 am | delete
    What about Namleps Lane. Deer Park, NY?
    Unique, only one in world.

    There is no Hoddle Highway. It's Hoddle Street which joins up with Punt Road, one of the busiest in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

    Great lens, 5*****. It's amazing where some of these names come from. I was born in Lilliput Road, but I'm not a midget! Just up the road from here in Deerfield Beach (Florida) is Lob Lolly Lane.
    I remember at high school there was a tv commercial for Typhoo Tea "Typhoo Puts The T In Britain".
    We used to say, well then who puts the "****" in Scunthorpe... LOL :)
  • nopantstees Jul 9, 2009 @ 9:02 pm | delete
    This is awesome. I would love to tell people that I lived on Butts Wynd Drive, or any of these other funny names. Great job!

    Fantastic lens! I have done a great deal of traveling in my time and have come across some real doozies of street names. I can't believe how extensive your list is though. Great work.

    Squeeze Guts Alley, Truro, England - Very funny indeed! Good idea for a lens, 5*!
  • Wysiwigs Mar 31, 2009 @ 4:42 am | delete
    I wonder how many times some of those names get repeated when giving the address to someone (a pretty mortifying moment, to be sure :o) Another fabulous 5* lens girl!

    Evansville, IN is also home to Gun Powder Lane. I lived there a short while.

    For more holiday themed street names, check out a map of Santa Claus, IN (google maps works great!). There is an entire area with Christmas street names (including all of the reindeer) and also another area with other holidays such as "inauguration day "and "pro superbowl". It's all around the theme park called Holiday World, the nation's oldest theme park.

    While driving around England, we got lost and found ourselves on Butt Close. I took a photo but lost it and was wondering if anyone else saw this street.
