It’s scary how real these names seem. I can totally imagine driving somewhere and seeing these names on the road signs.

  1. Karkonoszowo? Głebokiepol? Some of these sound legit, but others are completely unbelievable

  2. Głębokiepol is the dumbest city name.

    It sounds like some Januszex company digging deep septic tanks or sth.

  3. Lol no. AI is still very far away for doing anything useful thank God.

    The sooner Reddit stops spamming about it, the better.

  4. People here seem to misunderstand how Chat Gpt works.

    You can’t make the AI think for you. They are a glorified pattern finder, and it’s fed on the internet, the most biased source ever.

    It’s up to you to filter the results to your liking

  5. Pustewory, Tęgihuj Dolny, Wiosłowiarnia Toporna,
    Przeddzwądów, Górne Doły, Podchrząszczowo Wielkie.

    > .1. Wielkogród

    Fairly sure there’s a Russian equivalent of that that is in use in Russia. For Poland, sounds mostly legit.

    > .5. Świdronia

    Świdroń is a family name, you might find streets named like that. [Świdronie](https://pzgik.geoportal.gov.pl/prng/Miejscowosc/PL.PZGiK.204.PRNG.00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000137736-106886) is an actual town.

    > .6. Złotnikięta

    Ugh, no, this is not something that sounds remotely plausible.

    > .7. Brzeskowo

    > .9. Kędzierzawy

    Kędzierzawy or Kędzierzawa sounds legit. We did have [Kędzierzewo](https://miastokolobrzeg.pl/historia/24277-historia-wsi-kolobrzeskiej-kedrzyno.html) and [Kedzierzyn](https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C4%99dzierzyn), have [Kędzierz](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K%C4%99dzierz)

    > .10. Karkonoszowo

    Uncanny valley. Karkonosze are a mountain chain.

  7. Honestly “Królewska Wola” (Royal will) sounds amazing.

  8. I’ve seen not a long time ago ,,chwalibogowo,,. Those names sound more real than that

  9. I once wanted to make a city inspired by Siglufjörður in Iceland, and wanted to import the terrain, but the only source of high enough resolution was ja.is and I was unable to download raw data from it.

    And all the tools on the internet worked on google maps, which have very low resolution in Iceland.

  10. Once town called Nowoszymiec appeared in my dream, I checked and it didn’t exist.

    Maybe I am AI

  11. Kleszczówka and Jeziorowo, Luboradz, Królewska Wola do exist it’s a small vilages though, There is also Brzesko Town (instead of Brzeskowo but given how Polish works it can very well be the same town as Brzeskowo can be accepted as diminutive of Brzesko) there is also Kołodziejów (instead of Kłodziejów) in Ukraine.

    Still funny how many of them aren’t real bud sound like they could be.

  12. Kurwa, Kurw, Kurwie, Kurwice, Kurwiele, Kurwy, Kurwosze, Kurwachy, Kurwin, Chujowice, Chujnia, Chujwie, Chujce, Chujki, Chujowizna, Pierdolnice, Pierdolniki, Pierdolce, Pierdole, Jebuce, Jebutnik, Jebuchowo, Jebce, Jebniki… the possibilities are endless.

  13. If I had this kind of issue I would go city named after some, but unknown, person. Like Andrzejów, Annogród, Wincentyn, Stanisławia or Kazimierzowo. They all sound legit and its not an issue if there is already existing one.

  14. Whoa, I’ve been to Kleszczówka many times, it’s a little village just by my hometown Dęblin.

  15. I grew up in a Polish speaking family but have not yet been to Poland. If someone told me they came from this town I think I’d actually believe them…
