There is a town in Arizona that wanted to be "Y" because of a Y intersection but Arizona required a minimum of three letters so it is "Why"
After all these years, you have come this far. Great Video and as always, I like your Background music interpretations.

I would have liked to see more of the town than just the bus stop, church and main road. Most of these small French communities are delightful to walk around, and have little shops and a café.

Missed opportunity to call the video ''Y is this village called Y?'' 😭

If anyone wonders why there are so many places in Norway and Sweden called Å, the answer is that å means a small river

I know the technology thing all too well. I used to live in Ayr, Ontario, and there was at least one website (for a Canadian company) that wouldn't let me register my address, since it required 5 letters. My programmer in Christ, do some research for the regions you're serving!
"This village's name is just a Y"
