lmao what a name ! well i just came across it on a newspage,read ahead...
There's bad news for the residents of the Swedish town of Fjuckby.
Despite their pleas, after becoming an international laughing stock, they can't change its name.
Sky's Europe correspondent Greg Milam has the story in his weekly glance at the lighter side of the continent, in Euro Vision.
"Villagers have become tired of the ridicule, teasing and hilarity for the name Fjuckby, which contains both the Swedish rude word 'juck' and the more familiar English equivalent.
They wanted to revert to the original name of Fjukeby but the Swedish Institute of Language and Folklore has refused.
So the 60 residents are stuck with Fjuckby. Both names translate as "windy village".
The villagers say the name Fjuckby makes it difficult to sell property or run a successful business.
But the Swedish Institute of Language and Folklore has refused a request to the change its name.
