Southpark ?

Ample parking day or night,..
humble folk without temptation,.


I don't think so.
I think that rules out 'Southpark'.

That's okay, you would just pronounce it something like Bu-urn Dark.

I like that ppl think that suburb down south is called "co-burn" if it was pronounced like that they wouldve spelt it like that.
Cockburn. Makes me laugh everytime.

Its pommie so is kinda shortened in the pronunciation.

I bet you struggle with Worcestershire also.

If they really wanted it to be pronounced c0ck burn, they'd just call it gonorrhoea.

I once designed a substation for a suburb called Macarthur. In the documentation I gave it the name "Macarthur Park Substation". It got right through the approvals process until it reached final sign of by the MD, who was old enough to remember the song lyrics. He put the red pen through the word 'park'.

I guess he didn't like the prophetic implication of the chorus - "Macarthur Park is melting in the dark".
