I love visiting other areas "Old Barn Rd", and "Swamp Rd"
These days you can't even tell the name comes from the area. They use old words to describe it. An area with a hill could be called a "Something-bjer". Bjer means hill and is close to the modern word Berg but if you don't know about it then you don't think about it.
Sure, we could have old barn road. But I am not talking about roads. More like City names, local village names, local area names and such.
