iamkengend on 16.11.2025 9:30 a.m. Tomhaggard Co Wexford. I mean like why and how did they come up with that name?
ceruleanstones on 16.11.2025 9:35 a.m. I’ve cycled through Bastardstown – they call it something else on local signage, as I remember
Gordianus_El_Gringo on 16.11.2025 9:39 a.m. Not a town but I always chuckle whenever I drive by ‚bundle of sticks‘ roundabout in kildare
lanciadub on 16.11.2025 9:40 a.m. I love the name tubbercurry, reminds me of a chipper at 2 in the morning
chazol1278 on 16.11.2025 9:41 a.m. I nearly died laughing on a school trip when we passed through Horse & Jockey, how is that the name of a town??
JerSnow88 on 16.11.2025 9:42 a.m. Horse and Jockey in Tipp is an awful odd and funny one to me. Always have a laugh passing it on the motorway. Newtwopothouse in Cork too.
Resident_Fail6825 on 16.11.2025 9:44 a.m. Meelick. Effin. Nobber. Blue Ball. Muff. Piltown. Santry. Ballydehob. Ring. Pig’s Elbow. Lousybush. Trim.
Hankman66 on 16.11.2025 9:45 a.m. Fannystown is in the running: https://www.townlands.ie/wexford/bargy/duncormick/duncormick/fannystown/ And this one is hard to believe but there you go: Doodys Bottom: https://www.townlands.ie/wicklow/lower-talbotstown/donard/donard/doodys-bottoms/

mamjazzo on 16.11.2025 9:46 a.m. I quite like Effin. They have an Effin Church, and an Effin school. Also, I heard Patrickswell, good for him.
Jacksonriverboy on 16.11.2025 9:47 a.m. People don’t really think about it but Ballsbridge is actually hilarious. There’s also Ballsgrove, Co. Meath Gaybrook, Co. Westmeath. Horse and Jockey always gives me a giggle too.
