Any towns or villages near you that would make a nice name?

[LiffeySaysNollaigShona]

The Harlow thread got me thinking. It's not the idea of using a town as a name that I don't like, it's that it's the same two towns used. Harlow and Camden!

I'm going to start with Kinvara, a place in Galway. I think that'd make a nice name.

Anybody else?

It always gladdens my heart when I drive past the signpost to 'Findo Gask'.

(On the road to Perth)

You are very close then LJ, I am in Wickham Market.

Claverton, ( Claverton Downs, near Bath), Clifton ( Bristol),Bexley ( Bexley Heath, South London) for boys maybe?

I live near Wetwang

which may make a nice name for someone

There's a Pink Green not far from me..

Our village is called Kinver

Thornaby

If you live near Bromley, Pratt, after Pratts Bottom.

I know WM Goober........my late father had work connections in Easton!!

Findo Gask.

We used to drive past the road sign for it when visiting my auntie and I always wanted to live there just so I could tell people where I was from.

TwoIf - I've never been there but I believe Findo and Gask are actually two places close together. Still gladdens my heart to see the sign.

Are they? Well Findo on its own I suppose, but then that is a bit too near Findus in pronounciation!

My village makes a lovely girls' name (alt. spelling).

Lots of bottoms round here too.

there is a place we pass on way to york called askem richard and askem bryan mmmmmmm.places near me that would make great names barnsley,rothwell,morley,tingley,pretty boring really to some on here ..

Devon
Kent
Mallard
Marlow
Erigall
Clifden
Mead
Oran
Earl
Aspen

We live fairly near a place called Titsey

I've driven through Findo Gask.

Lets see villages near me Stanley obviously already a name, Meigle, Muthill pronounced Mew-th-ill, Waterloo, Redgorton, Caputh pronounced cay-pu-th.

How about "Brodie" (it's in Moray in the Highlands of Scotland)and it's a small village next to a castle of the same name....

laughing at prospect of calling my next baby Cockermouth, Egremont or Barrow in Furness!

My current faves is Helion's Bumpstead and Shingay-cum-Wendy
