Thinking of doing some travel this summer? Did you know that Newfoundland, has some of the strangest place names not only in Canada, but in the world?
Makes one wonder who the people are, who have the onerous job of deciding on these names!

There is actually a word for the study of place names. It’s called toponymy

Podunk, Cupids, Conception Bay, Cow Head, Leading Tickles, Heart’s Desire, Heart’s Content,
Happy Valley-Goose Bay, Nick’s Nose Cove, Whitless Bay and Square Islands,
Blow Me Down, Come-By-Chance, Dildo, Happy Adventure, Lark Harbour and…. (drumroll!)…..Pothead!
