Colorado: No Name

N 41° 50.206 W 089° 18.784

It’s fitting that this mysterious moniker would have so many theories about how it came to be. One suggests that No Name was named after the nearby canyon and creek; another claims that the Colorado Department of Transportation simply assigned “No Name” to an unnamed highway exit. Fortunately, the funniest story is also the most widely accepted. Legend has it that the Colorado government once inquired with local villagers about what the town’s name should be. Most residents wrote “No Name,” and the state called their bluff, sealing their fate as one of the most inadvertently memorable place names in the U.S.
