Naming our road

There is a Front Wheel drive out by my brother house (past Batavia ohio on sr 32) the zf transmission plant is on it. Near Cincinnati there is a Big Bone Lick RD (there is a big bone lick state park) and yes it does cross Beaver RD. With that out of my system how about something to comemerate 9/11 (or some other event). Patriot rd, Never Forget rd, Twin Towers rd, etc.... Any more ideas?

Naming our road

Hey they do this here in my small town...Most the time only one or two people live on the country road so they name it after one of the people's last name....

I live on the same road as my father and we own the land on it so they named it after our last name..

Here are some of our country road names some don't even have signs,

Grant Road
Deeson Road
Sugar Hill Road
Blues Road
Sunny Side Road
Forest Road
Kermit Station Road
Farm Road
Honey Bayou Road
Apple Seed Road (yes a guy has a big orchard of apple trees)
Big Creek Road

and many many more lol


How about
Over The Hills Far Away Road
Are your people on your road into Led Zeppelin lol

Once again, I'm showing my age here, but I was thinking of a song a little older than that: try 1960.

"...the law they swore they got him, but the devil got him first..."

Doesn't ANYBODY remember this song but me? HINT: It was sung by one of Hollywood's greatest actors.............

How about "FTE Blvd".

You may want to pick something fairly normal - otherwise, you'll always have to repeat your street name to people several times.

Just a thought.

I was thinking that you were supposed to stay away from Copperhead road.

One more vote for Fair lane.
