Alabama has a whole town named Bug Tussle

Used to have one named "Hell's Half Acre" but then the church got involved and they named it just "Half Acre"

Austin, TX has a 38 1/2 Street.

We also have a subdivision name Olympic Heights and all the streets are named after olympic winners: Johnny Weismuller (sp), Bruce Jenner, etc.
