I've lived in Oklahoma all my life. I'm 41 years old. And yet, every spring, every tornado season, I hear the meteorologists mention towns I've never heard of before. Granted, many are old Indian names, but they certainly are unusual. Just this morning, I heard a new one. So, here are the ABC's of Oklahoma towns:
Arkoma
Bokchito
Corn
Dibble
Etowah
Forgan
Gotebo
Hoot Owl
Indiahoma
Jet
Ketchum
Lookeba
Monkey Island
Ninnikah
Ochelata
Pocola
Quay
Roff
Skedee
Talala
Velma
Wapanucka
A special nod goes out to Nowata, Oklahoma, because since I was a child, I thought that was the funniest name.
