Florida is known for many things—sunshine, alligators, retirees who drive golf carts like NASCAR pros—but did you know it’s also home to some of the most bizarre town names in the country? From places that sound like rejected cartoon locations to towns that make you go, “Wait… that’s real?”, here’s a roundup of Florida’s most hilariously named spots.
1. Two Egg, FL
This tiny town got its name during the Great Depression when folks were so broke, they traded goods for two eggs. That’s right—this place is literally named after the OG barter system. Today, it’s a quiet community where you can proudly say, “I’m from Two Egg,” and watch people’s confused reactions.
2. Niceville, FL
Originally named Boggy (which sounds like a rejected Pokémon), Niceville decided to rebrand itself. Now, it hosts the Boggy Bayou Mullet Festival, because nothing says “nice” like a fish known for its questionable hairstyle.
3. Couch, FL
No, this isn’t where all your lost TV remotes go. But if you visit, you might find yourself wondering if the whole town is just one giant living room.
4. Dogtown, FL
If you’ve ever wanted to live in a place where every resident might secretly be a golden retriever, Dogtown is calling your name. The mailman? Probably a Labrador. The mayor? A very good boy.
5. Mayo, FL
With a population just over 1,000, this town is small enough that you could probably spread its name on a sandwich and no one would notice.
6. Lulu, FL
Named after a postmaster’s girlfriend (allegedly), Lulu is now mostly a ghost town. So if you’re looking for a place to live out your Wild West fantasies without the cowboys, this is your spot.
7. Doctor’s Inlet, FL
Either this town is where all Florida’s physicians go to relax, or it’s the world’s most confusing medical-themed water park.
8. Okahumpka, FL
With a name that sounds like a sneeze, this tiny town is home to just 251 people. Try saying Okahumpka five times fast—we dare you.
9. Ocheesee, FL
Once the site of the longest Seminole War battle, Ocheesee now has a creamery. Because nothing says “truce” like delicious ice cream.
10. Briny Breezes, FL
A retired community where the air smells like saltwater and early bird specials. If you’ve ever wanted to live in a place that sounds like a Jimmy Buffett song, here’s your chance.
11. Dinner Island, FL
Is it named that because of the great fishing? Or because it’s the perfect spot for a romantic dinner? Either way, we hope the local restaurant is called Second Helping.
12. Sopchoppy, FL
Originally Lockchoppe (Muskogee for “acorn stem”), this town somehow evolved into Sopchoppy and never looked back. It’s also home to the Worm Grunting Festival, because Florida.
13. Panacea, FL
Need a cure for your woes? Head to Panacea, where the mineral springs promise healing powers. Or just drink enough margaritas until you forget your problems.
14. Yeehaw Junction, FL
This town used to be called Jackass Junction (yes, really), named after the burro-riding ranchers who frequented the local brothel. When the Florida Turnpike came through, they decided Yeehaw was more family-friendly.
15. Christmas, FL
Home to the world’s largest gator (Swampy), this town celebrates Christmas year-round. Because in Florida, even Santa rides an airboat.
So next time you’re road-tripping through the Sunshine State, keep an eye out for these gloriously weird town names. And if you find yourself in Fluffy Landing or Needmore, just remember—Florida doesn’t need an explanation. It just is.
