There is a street somewhere here in the Austin area called Nameless Road. I guess they couldn't think of anything to name it. :-[

That's how Nome, Alaska got its name. A cartographer wrote "Name?" for a village on a draft map and when it went to press it came out Nome.

We have a Street Road nearby.

just outside glenwood springs, co is a tiny town called no name.

Colorado Springs has a road named Ampersand - that's the name for the "&" sign. We also have several roads named Red Onion (Way, Drive, Court etc.)

Security, Colorado has a "Lois Lane"

Many people wonder about Colorado Spring's "Purgatory Drive" and don't realize that it is in a section that uses Colorado Ski slope names for road names.

I've always wondered how they (I guess city officials/developers) come up with names for streets. I haven't personally come across interesting/strange names; mostly elm (and other tree) streets and more recently names with "shire" attached.

I heard part of an npr program a couple of weeks ago about a Canadian map company that produces assorted fun maps showing towns/provinces with names that are out of the ordinary or follow a theme. Some were named after body parts.

Here in Baton Rouge, I always smile when I pass the street sign, "Plum Broque".

Lake Jackson, Texas, has streets called This Way and That Way, and I believe they intersect in the downtown area.

There's HelluvaHill Road in Delaware County PA

I stopped at the intersection of Clark & Kent streets this past week.

These streets are in a very, very old section of the city and I suspect they were named before Superman!

Speaking of Clark and Kent, Lois Lane is a cute little area in Bonita Springs, Florida.

My brother married a girl who lived on Chicken Bristle Road in Ohio, which I thought was the ugliest name for a road ever, and I never did figure out how to make a chicken bristle.
