Well, Portugal is ridden with stupidly named villages like:

Venda das Raparigas (roughly translated to "Selling of Girls")
Fonte do Bebe e vai-te (Fountain of drink and go away)
Picha (Dick)

The are small towns nearby called "Village of Cats", "General's Pine tree woods", "Fig Tree Couple", "Quarrys"

i think i'm missing the most interesting ones.

There's a road called Bell End near where I used to live.

I prefer Banning Street myself.

There's loads of rude sounding places in Dorset.
