Austria has a state called Windpassing and  a village called F***king. I kid you not!
South Africa has Pofadder [Puffadder] and in the Northern Cape the town of Hotazel.

Amazing, but here we go.

   D is for Delta
    Y is for Yankee
     K is for Kilo
      E is for Echo

Hopefully that spells it out

Ha Ha Ha!

It made me laugh when I saw it had changed 'that word' for 'thingy'

Priceless!

lol...i tried to put a name on unusual names thread and it did the same thing...I just wanted to mention poor little "Christmas C-O-C-K" and asked how could his parents do it to him! but alas it said poor little christmas thingy.....Thought hope someone doesnt want to do a lookup on the name C-o-c-k quite common in Cornwall or they will get a lookup on thingy! probably wouldnt impress....I assume the censor has been primed not to allow certain words and these sort of words r part of it even when they r quite serious people or place names....Kris
