Are there any Coincidences in Place Names where You or Your Families Have lived or are Living? Here's Mine...My Grandparents Lived on a Street called Ashburn park.My Brother Who Emigrated to Virginia,USA,Now lives in a Town called Ashburn...The Housing Development He Lives in is Called Carisbrook....My Other Brother,Now in London,Lives in a Street called Carisbrook! And if I fly out to visit Either of them,I'd pass through Virginia,County Cavan on my Way to Dublin Airport!
Thanks for Responses!

Yes,this happens a lot. You might just find out that you or a close relative are living in a place bearing thesame name with where you had lived before.My brother lived in Enfield town in the UK,and when i saw thesame Enfield in N.J,a cousine's friend's house, i was stormed,i don't think it's coincidence though!

I am from Manipal. This name is came from a mud lake. It become 'mud pala' and later 'manipal'. But i think this name is fit for this city. Because Syndicate bank headoffice is in this town and several other banks also. so money is just fall down here. So its Mani-fall.
