Fanny on the Hill (SE London)

I knew it well. 'Over the Fanny' to Plumstead.

Ugley, Essex (with the Ugley Women’s Institute which changed its name to the Women’s Institute of Ugley)

There's also the Loose Women's Institute, Loose being a place in Kent.

My brothers, DH, a friend and I all remember stopping for a drink in a village called Urine near Morzine in France. We stopped and took some photos - in the days of film cameras. I have googled and looked at maps of the area many times and have never found Urine again!

There is also the 'Idle working men's club' , based in the Idle area of Bradford. They make a big thing of it, enjoying the joke.

The thing is nobody who's in Wales or knows any Welsh thinks it's funny because it only looks a bit rude written down. When you actually say it it isn't "fanny big" it sounds like "van uh big".
You used to be able to get bags which said" I love Fanny Street", the street part was in very small type..

Fan y Bîg is Van Uh Beeg

Cockle Dick’s Lane is only about a mile away from me. I rather like Gobbler’s Knob, the home of Punxsutawney Phil in Groundhog Day.

Someone's clearly taken the piss then!

A street in Raunds, Northamptonshire is called Titty Ho.

There used to be a car dealership in Raunds called the Titty Ho Motor Company, we used to see loads of cars with the sticker in the back window.
