When it comes to names, the Show-Me state has a tendency to choose some rather unique handles to use for the various locales throughout Missouri. This should come as no surprise as we derive names from english, french, german, and native american words as just as a few sources. Throw in some unusual pronunciation and local dialect and things can get interesting real fast. What do you expect though when the citizens of our fair state can’t even agree if our state is called MIssouri or Missourah. At least both sides of that argument can agree that the third attempted pronunciation of Miss-ouri was ridiculous. And while the debate over the pronunciation of our state name persists, the pronunciation of certain locals does not, odd as those names maybe. Join us in this episode as we look at some locales with some of the oddest names in Missouri, and how they became a part of… the Show-Me.
