Hell, there's a street here in Toronto called Cummer Avenue. I'm surprised there aren't more jokes about it.

I'm going to say that's worse.

Don't forget about Mianus in Connecticut. There's lots of things to do in Mianus.

The only problem with that is, according to the article, "Sexmoan" was the colonial bastardization and mispronounciation of "Sasmuan" by the Spanish.

Now i want to know what's older: the discovery and naming of Mianus or Uranus.
Karmic_Hazard t1_iy2r4yv wrote
The valley of Mianus was "discovered" in the early 1600s. Uranus was discovered on March 13, 1781.
I guess in terms of discovery, Mianus is older. But Uranus is more popular.

The name Uranus is definitely older, being an ancient Greek primordial sky god.
Curiously, Uranus is the only one of the planets to be named after the Greek version of a god rather than the Roman one. Uranus's Roman equivalent is called Caelus, a name wholely unlikely to inspire any lewd jokes.

In the Netherlands there's a village called Sexbierum, in Dutch it works better considering bier is beer, and a lot of jokes get made about it

If Lake Titicaca can deal with its name, Sexmoan could've stayed.
