Live near any fantasy-sounding places? List 'em here!

In Brooklyn we have:

Sheepshead Bay
Coney Island (Coneys are rabbits (where the place got its name) I always think of Sam Gamgee and his "brace of coneys")
Cobble Hill (sounds like a halfling village to me)
Midwood
Gravesend
Mill Basin and Mill Island

I'm near the Cahokia Mounds which are old Indian Burial mounds. I am positive that if I arm myself and go there with a shovel and pick I could find an ancient buried temple to some Indian god that is littered with loot. But I'm too afraid that instead I'll find something out of a Lovecraft story so I'm staying home.

Well there's goes your chance to level up.

So there's his chance to get killed or his mind warped beyond all redemption. Or both. :uhoh:

SHUSH YOU! I'm seeing if we will have a "Flexor of Yuggoth" on our hands if we encourage him to explore aforementioned mounds. :p
 

There's a town called Willowdale in Ontario Canada. Nice fantasy sounding name.

No, I'm not from Canada but I am a Rush fan and that's how I know of Willowdale. :D
 




Hmmm, I am a New Englander, born and bred, so...

Dragon Meadow - Oxford County, Maine
Unicorn St. - Newburyport, Massachusetts
Trowbridge St - Portland, Maine (three blocks from where I live)
Gallows Hill (a hill) - Massachusetts (they used to hang people there)

Other places...
Whorehouse Meadows, Colorado (they sued the USGS for changing the name on the map to 'Naughty Girl Meadows', and won.)
