LONDON -- A Reddit thread posing the question, "What's the funniest/silliest named place in the UK?" has revealed something very important about the collective British subconscious.

Apparently, the UK has a rather Freudian obsession with the male genitalia that has come to manifest itself in the not-so-subtle naming of several of its towns, parishes, and various other places.

And when it wasn't a penis-inspired name, it was a fecal one. Or butts were involved -- basically, anything that involved the rude depiction of bodily functions or parts.

We couldn't really justify including everyplace that managed to incorporate "cock" into its name, but here's a list of some of the best worst-named places in the rainy isles:

1. Penistone: Civil Parish in South Yorkshire

2. Wetwang: Village in East Riding of Yorkshire

3. Brown Willy: Hill in Cornwall

4. Sandy Balls: Parkland in Hampshire

5. Shitterton: Small village in Dorset

6. Puddletown: Parish in Dorset

7. Cockermouth: Market town in Cumbria

8. Butt Hole Road: Street in South Yorkshire

9. Gropecunt Lane: Common street name, antiquated

10. Twatt: Towns in the Shetland Islands and Orkney Islands

11. Bell End: Village in Worcestershire

Sigh. Who let a 13-year-old boy name Britain?
