Climax is one of the better ones in Michigan, causing I-194 in Battle Creek to be called the Penetrator, since it's halfway between (I-)69 and Climax.
And don't be knocking Hell, Michigan. A great little village, which at this moment is frozen over.

Druggers End in Worcestershire.
There is the classic village in Austria called F***ing.
They get a bit hacked off with English tourists stealing name signs etc.

Pottysville, Virginia.
It's just up the road from Cuckoo.
You can drive from Cuckoo, through Bumpass, to Pottysville in about 30 minutes.
And who can ever forget quaint little Middlesex in New York.

Not particularly funny, but it's always stuck with me.
I lived in a village called Edith Weston. There was another village about 10 miles away called Collyweston and I always wondered if they were related.
