When studying maps, whether with an atlas, a fold out map or an internet site like Google, some of the names you see just kind of jump out at you. There are, in fact, many curious and funny names that dot the maps around the globe. Follow along as Tidbits looks at toponymy -- “the study of place names,” or, in this case, rather strange ones.

• Many places are named for historical events, persons or naturally occurring landmarks, but some names are just weird, seeming to have come from sarcastic comments or drunken explorers! • A funny dot on maps of Quebec is Baie des Ha! Ha! This is a hamlet near the Ha! Ha! River, which has five dams, all named Ha! Ha! (numbered 1-5). There is also a Pointe des Ha! Ha!, Bridge Lake Ha! Ha!, Park Ha! Ha!... and more. The areas are all interesting and beautiful spots in Quebec. Remember that Canada has both English and French as their national languages. The French meaning of “haha” is “an unexpected obstacle on the path,” which pretty well explains how the names originated. • Another interesting place in eastern Canada is Blow Me Down Provincial Park near Deer Lake, Newfoundland. But the wind no longer blows across and over the Blow Me Down Mountains since the park now has lots of trees that shield visitors from those windy blasts. Odd Dots on the Map: Turn to page 3
