A new town

[Fnaar]

I've just invented a new town in the Lake District.
Or it could possibly be a new name for an existing town, if any of them is looking t change>
It's Thwaitesmere in Grasdale cum Staitheley Buttergarth.

Any suggestions for new names for existing towns?

Coventry could be renamed Birmingham Lite.

Mark Thomas through his Peoples Manifesto programme decided to rename Windsor as Slough South. Genius.

At work we often come up with phrases that we think sound like villages. Inappropriate Nesting is the only one I can remember off hand. (when people fill a cardboard box with plastic bottles, or steel cans with aluminium foil, thinking they are being helpful and saving space).

We also often invent people. Turd Frosting (as in, "well, this rain is the turd frosting on a crap brownie of a day") is a Norwegian actor, famed for dark dour cop roles. He made an ill-advised foray into Hollywood, in a comedy detective film, co-starring Latin American cabaret actress Ceramica Acapulco (the make and model of a bathroom basin NT bought on Ebay).

In one week, we found the cardboard packaging from a Rebecca Headboard, and an Elaine Toilet-Brush.

Pathé newsreel: The United States will see the error of her ways and beg Britain to take her back into The Empire. New York will be renamed Chiddingfold-on-Sea!

As per TVC's post, we could take this as an opportunity to keep over-inflated house prices down by renaming various London boroughs and welcoming them into the bosom of their less illustrious neighbours, Kensington, Belgravia, etc could all become East Hammersmith and shave millions of excessive pounds off the price of their pied a terres.

As Mr Johnson is having 'an affair with the Mayor', maybe 'it' should be renamed 'Blondon'?
I agree with threetownsmcginty - make everything South of the Thames...'North Croydon' - that should do it!

Given the obese population of north London, Finchley becomes Fatley.

Oh, and combining two threads...Barnet becomes Comboverville.

Where do you live, Rockster?

I heard they were making an adult television series in Wales called "Dribbly Cwm", with a female star from Averbigfanny.

Not a town name but rename England as Greater Yorkshire and make every right thinking person happy.

Rename Yorkshire as East Lancashire, 'appen as it'll stop all this nonsense. Or should that be rename Lancashire as West Yorkshire.

Who gives a toss, it's all a long way up the road.
