Did you know that Dublin (IRE) and Blackpool (UK) have the same name? One's from Gaelic and the other's from English, but that's the only real difference.
Of course, that's not what Dublin is CALLED in Modern Irish. They call it what they called it long before it was named Dublin: Baile Atha Cliath. Which, of course, is pronounced Baalaclee. I'm convinced Gaelic spelling was invented by its speakers entirely to piss off the English.

Hm, good question. Checking,,, checking... checking... come on... oh, come on... hmm...Hairyshoe wrote:Watership Down is apparently a real place, in the English county of Hampshire. It's next to some town called Kingsclere, but since Lord Lloyd-Webber (yes, that Lloyd-Webber) owns much of it, nothing's been built on it. Still no idea why it's called "watership," though.
...I like research too.
Okay! Nothing definite, but it's generally assumed that "Watership" is an altered version of "water sheep", due to the area of Watership Down being primarily grassy. (In fact, the area is still used to graze sheep.) It's the down where you water your sheep, so it's "water sheep down", "Watership Down". Not unbelieveable, when you consider such places as "Whitchurch" (white church).
Yours wolfishly,
