Heh, I wouldn’t mind living in a place called ‘Bad Axe’. The most interesting one we have here is: Hell, Montana.
Please tell me there is no Nimrod Minnesota…please!
Haha there is a Nimrod, Minnesota cause I live there!!!
i live there too, its a great town with is awsome pop. of 69
There’s a Hell, Michigan…
a Climax, Michigan, too
😀
#1 makes me laugh. That makes it “Eek, Ak” if you use the state’s abbreviation. LOL! Happy TT and thanks for stopping by.
In what area of California is Dunmovin? Fun and informative list! Thanks for visiting my TT!
You could do a whole list just out of New Mexico!

#5 actually renamed their town after a game show. Hard to believe.
I actually don’t live too far from Hell, MI. I have a friend who lives near Bad Axe.
That’s funny!#3 and #9 are my favorites! Happy TT!
we won’t even talk about the weird names in PA!!! Love that header!!! Thanks for visiting 🙂
Cat Elbow Corner? That’s great.
Happy TT!
Love #10. Enough! (Thanks for visiting my TT.)
I liked Enough, Missouri – I need to move there, as that is my constant moto. Good list – see ya.
Dunmovin–what a hoot. Great job for a fun TT.
My TT is up http://collectingmythoughts.blogspot.com/2007/10/thursday-thirteen-13-places-my-purse.html
There’s a Bucksnort, Tennessee…I passed it on I-40 whenever I drove from where my school was in Jackson to Nashville. I’ve even stopped for gas there a couple of times. Other weird town names in TN are Finger and Frog Jump, they have some good ones there.
Very amusing list. You have to wonder who came up with these names.
LMAO…OK, some of those you just have to say..”What were they thinking???” Great list…Happy TT.
I’d expect Truth or Consequences to be somewhere near Reno or Las Vegas!
I want to visit Nimrod!!! That sounds like a fun place to go!
How about Needmore Indiana ? Happy T13! I love the header.
That’s really odd and funny 🙂 Great list!
Happy TT!
I would have never thought a cat had an elbow! Thanks for visiting my TT. happy Thursday

Ihave been to T or C NM funlist
It’s amazing the names of towns, some are just downright embarrassing!! LOL
Happy TT!
Love the list! Dunmovin made me laugh out loud. I can’t help but get a picture in my mind of people in wagon trains picking their towns’ names because they decided, despite the fact that they were intending on going further, where they had stopped was “Okay” or “Enough” or just that they were plain old “Dunmovin.”
Thanks for stopping by. Happy TT!
Truth or Consequence?? seriously!!!???
I want to visit Truth or Consequences. Wouldn’t want to live there though. Could you imagine putting that in your address?
11234 S. Central St.
Truth or Consequences, NM 29944
HAPPY TT
For some reason I really want to live in Noodle. I’m not entirely sure why…GREAT list!
I want to live in Noodle! lol
Happy TT!
Those are some weird names. When I was a kid we used to go to a flea market in Gnawbone , Indiana.
Along with Hell and Climax, Michigan also has a Paradise. In fact, it’s the only place I know of where you can literally go from Hell to Paradise in one day…
This is a great list. I love those crazy names. How about this one:
Whatalottawatah
If I remember how to spell it correctly. I think it’s in Missouri somewhere.
cjh
they are awesome names …and the comments are just as funny !
that’s cool list.thanks for the info. Happy TT! it’s my first time here. hope you got time.
Okay, Enough! LOL! That was much cooler than my list for sure. Happy TT!
Haha those are great!
I’m with Megan. I completely see a group of wagoneers coming to a place, likely their third or fourth as they follow the gold rush, and settling down, deciding they’re Dunmovin, and from here on out they’re home.
Great list, I’ll have to look up others just to appease my curiosity.
Happy TT 🙂

Those are GREAT! Wonderful list. I’m sure it would be odd to live in a town that is a little interesting to say…
“Hi, I’m from ****-On-A-Stick, Wisconsin!” LOL
Sorry.
Happy TT! xoxo
Great list i’ve heard of the one in New Mexico but not the other ones lol gotta love Nimrod and Dunmovin lol…Happy TT -http://inraesworld.blogspot.com/
Hi, Ellen! Wow, this looks like it was a fun list to do! I’m surprised Mars, PA is not on this list. You’re definitely gonna have to do another one….there’s a lot more wacky town names around the US.
Thanks for stoppin’ by….have a great weekend!
It makes you wonder how exactly they come up with town names. Is their a majority vote? I would love to know
Maribeth
Great list. I have heard of some of them.
TM
Yep, I agree with Megan about Dunmovin. I don’t know how it really happened, but in my mind, it was exactly as she describes it!
Funny list.
I love this!
Those were good. It is amazing what they have named some of these towns. Quite quirky.
Happy Thursday.
Hey, I have been through Nimrod a few times! So big…if you blink you may miss it!
Happy TT~
Great list! I had no idea there were so many odd named towns! My list is up if you wanna stop by…
LMAO love the last one ehhehe
aline
LOL, those were great.
I live Michigan but never been to Bad Axe but
been to Hell, Michigan
LOL very funny. I think I’m partial to Dunmovin CA! That sure describes me, having just moved in June.
Happy TT!
Eight and thirteen are my favorites. Nimrod…Bwahahahah. Have a great TT. 🙂
We have a Justice Ohio but nothing weird or exciting. We also have a city for each letter of the alphabet. Not many states can boast (or would want to ) about that. 🙂
Thanks for visiting my T13 #53 13 Tidbits of Wisdom Edition
Those are awesome! We live right near “Loves Park”–I hear it gets good postal traffic around Valentine’s Day.
Clever list!
We have a Paradise and a Garden of Eden here in Nova Scotia…Newfoundland boasts Dildo and Bumble Bee Bight! A great idea for a TT list!
very interesting!
LOL! These are great. I’ve always liked #5.
Happy TT and thanks for visiting my list!
Now I’m curious about where Noodle, TX is located. Great idea for this week!
My parents said they passed through Nowhere, Arizona once. They also said that the people there looked very unfriendly and they were afraid to stop.
Interesting list!
lol 🙂 Happy TT
Those are great.
I always liked the town name “Witless”. I’m sure when it was choosen (probably by puritans who had a taste for names like that) it was thought of in a different way than we do today.
Great TT 🙂
Great list….here in Georgia we have a town named Cumming….no kidding.
Thanks for visiting History Is Elementary!
Is this real! How appropriate that a CA town would be Dunmovin. That was one smart fellow who named that town…obviously a land lover!
Hehe, I’ve heard of some of those. Happy TT13 😛
I can’t believe……I made it thru 64 comments!! I’ve been to Bad Axe, Michigan. AND even to Climax, Michigan.
great list!
I finally did my first Tt:
we have a Grundy, VA…not too weird, but it’s pretty funny considering I grew up saying things like “grundy undies”.
