Yeah. Having watched the video and read the article, I didn’t think it actually was Aikido in her case. Just seems like some of her energy-channeling methods were similar.

There is a Rome in like every state.
There’s a Rome and a Rome City in Indiana. There are two Romes and a New Rome in Wisconsin, and there are four Romes and a New Rome in Ohio.

Like they tried to combine Rome and Rhone, and missed both times?

Our Home -> R Home -> Rhome
Could be a tragic misspelling or someone misreading.

Nah… Not at all. European city names were very popular in the states, because it conferred some status. Actually, it was between Rome and Hamburg, I think, and Rome won out.

Ah.
It’s unfortunate that the US has not taken a similar liking to the more quaint location names of the UK, such as Loughrigg Tarn and Dun Ringill. Meaty, juicy names!

Nah, if it’s in the east, it tends to be very sort of well known, large city names like Rome, York, Cairo (pronounced Kay-ro)… there is a Scotland GA, though! You’ll also see lots of names based on people (Gwinnett County is named after Button Gwinnett, a GA representative to the continental congress) or Native American names. Out west, you get a lot more places with Spanish names (or in some places in FL). And Louisiana has a strong French, creole influence, of course.
If I ever found a town, I promise to name it Loughrigg Tarn…!

Good. And it would be great if there was an actual tarn nearby.

Clearly, it’s going to have to be up north, if I want a glacier lake!
