A – Z Cities with Mysteries – Real & Fictional

 


No Name, Colorado

How the town got its name:

 According to Visit Glenwood Springs, there are a few variations of how the town got its name, but one rendition is most widely accepted.

The city said that as the widely accepted version goes, the state sent out a questionnaire about the town’s name to its residents, to which the majority answered with “No Name” under the section asking for the name of the town.

“The state took them at their word and officially recorded ‘No Name’ into the state records, sealing the town’s fate. Despite attempts to change it, the name stuck,” Glenwood Springs said on its website.
