Got any names of towns that you think are funny or weird .
Lets hear them Green Screen .

I'll start this page with one called " BABY HEAD " in Llano County .
Can anyone top this one ?

there's a baby head mt and creek, and cemetary i think, but i've never heard of a town.

[dragonsdaddy]

it is a ghost town- ie not in existence today.

[highspeed]

Matagorda. It means "kill the fat lady" in Spanish.

[dragonsdaddy]

I drove through Iran, Texas once, and it weirded me out.

White Settlement...

white settlement was named such due to the preponderance of indians in the area, or so i've read.

[El Forajido]

Well after Ragins post, I guess there ain't any more need to go on. Close thread

[Burnadell]

I like Bedias cause it pronounces it "correctly"

I don't get it? "It" pronounces what correctly?

There's a semi-racial named town in Trinity county....they don't want the name changed.

That would be Nigton, founded by former slaves and named by one of them.

[Burnadell]

Dry Prong, LA


I heard Lorena Bobbitt grew up in Cut Off, LA

You do know she now works as a spokesperson promoting Cutco Knives, right?

Her ex husband went to work as a spokesman for Snap-On Tools!

I drove through Iran, Texas once, and it weirded me out.

It's actually Iraan, and pronounced Ira- Ann.

[Tex1986]

Yep. We hunt in Goat Hill, Nigton is couple of miles away

White Settlement...

Oh, a few years ago some ignorant people wanted to make this into a big racially divisive thing, but they failed.

The name of White Settlement originated as a result of there being two settlements in the area: one occupied predominantly by Native Americans (near where Fort Worth is located today), and the other one being occupied by white settlers. The latter settlement received the name "White Settlement" as a way to distinguish itself from the Native American settlement. The city was incorporated in 1941.[8]

On October 14, 2005, city leaders announced a plan to have local voters decide on a possible name change for the town from White Settlement to West Settlement. In the November 8 election, the name change was overwhelmingly rejected by a vote of 2388 to 219.

It's actually Iraan, and pronounced Ira- Ann.

Yes Sir!

Hunted Terrell County way back when.

That is some tough, unforgiving country out that way.
