I find this very interesting, there are always some weird/cool/sweet/beautiful names.

Mine is Blåbærsvingen wich means The Blueberry Swing or The Blueberry Bend.

Or The Blueberry Curve. Hard to translate.
It's okay, It's okay
You don't have to run and hide away
It's okay, it's okay
I love you anyway

    Aw.. I'm afraid the crazies will get me if I post my street ;)

    You're from Norway? I'm half Norwegian. I'd love to visit there someday.. I'll have to look up your street and stalk you while I'm there. :)

    My mom's side of the family all came over from Norway. My uncle Jim told me all these stories about Norway, but I was much younger then, and I can't remember them too well. I do know that it sounded like a lovely place.


    ps.. I'm a girl :)

    Simple, typical names. Split childhood on Gore Ave. and Village St. Now currently living on Margaret Ave. (named so for the Princess ... Princess Ave. being 1 street to the South.)

    Edit: 1/8th Norwegian, myself.

    Michael Hunt Dr.

    Actually, that's not the street I live on but working with maps all day I see my fair share of weird names for streets. Mike Munt Dr is an actual street in the city of El Monte, CA. Google map it. Fine, I'll do it for you.

    Right Here!! Look.

    mine have always been fairly boring. people's last names and whatnot. holy shit, now that I think about it, I can't remember the name of the street I just moved from! I lived there for 2 years!

    anyway, I always have to laugh at new developments/street/subdivisions that are named after the nature that *used* to be there: e.g. bubbling brook road, deer crossing estates, wildflower meadows...
