HeyI'mAmethyst Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Look what I've found: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/Leeds,+AL,+USA/@33.544652,-86.538287,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x888912d4e2f0b403:0xbb3f10a8ae7ee906 So, this either means that the Americans aren't original or they ran out of town name ideas, and stole the UK's. (In case you're wondering, I know the full story - early 1800s or so british people who moved to America decided to name towns after the towns they left, please don't kill me, Americans ) So, yeah .

TNeggs[KANSAS,USA] Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Nice disclaimer in little print. We Americans have too much land to keep coming up with new names! all nations are fair game though lol. Paris, Texas/Tennessee/Missouri - Athens Georgia/Texas/Ohio/AlabamaEuropeans aint the only ones, Shawnee, Kiowa, Comanchee, Wichita, and Pottawattomie are just a few names in one state taken from the Natives.
