Stink Onions?

Stink Onions, the true name for Chicago. Apparently.

Some State names look kind of weird too

Great post. My family jokes around that the straight Conquistadors named Texas while the gay conquistadors named California. Sounds better when it's said than read.

LG: Terrific stuff! Being a fan of geography, I particularly enjoy reading about the origins of place names. Thanks for sharing!
