Just found a Devon town called Woolfardisworthy, but can be pronounced as "Woolzery"

I like the Northamptonshire village of Cogenhoe, which is obviously pronounced cook-no.

It sits on the River Nene, which is pronounced Neen or Nen depending on which bit of Northamptonshire you live in (Northamptonshire is not very big...)

I think the accepted authority on anything to do with Northamptonshire has to be Alan Moore.
