THEY DON'T HEART FJUCKBY:

Fjuckby name stays the same (The Local, 27th February 2007)

The pilloried residents of Fjuckby have been left with little option but to endure their village's unfortunate name after the Institute of Language and Folklore rejected calls for a name change.

Fjuckby is saddled with the dual misfortune of containing both the rude Swedish word 'juck' and its more internationally recognisable English equivalent.

Ran across a Pennsylvania Dutchman named Gottlieb Fick. You would think he would ask the Court to change his name to Johann Fick or something.
