In Wales, there is a village by the name of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. Unsurprisingly, according to Wikipedia, this village has the longest place name in the UK. More surprising is that Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch Station, pictured above, is not the longest station name in the UK; this title was stolen by Gorsafawddacha’idraigodanheddogleddollônpenrhynareurdraethceredigion Station in North Wales, a station name specifically designed to steal the title.
In English, Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch means “St Mary’s church in the hollow of the white hazel near to the rapid whirlpool and the church of St Tysilio of the red cave”.
I love how that name breaks your formatting. I want to name my baby that.
And I love that there are FOUR L’s in a row.
