  • Wisconsin city and town names can be a challenge to pronounce even for those living in the state. But, for Texans? Forget it. Video by Mike De Sisti

      That's because you're a native. It would be logical to assume natives would know how to pronounce their own cities. Much like you probably wouldn't be able to pronounce cities of other states but those native to the state would. :) I've lived here in Madison for about 5 years now, and even I, a native Californian, had difficulty pronouncing some of them. Just like a good portion of people pronounce San Joaquin, "San Joe Quinn" or Yosemite, "Yo seh mite."

Very reasonable parking, plus MCTS has shuttles going from Park N Ride lots off 94. $5 round trip right up from the Park N Rides right up to the fest gates. My friends and I have been using the Park N Rides for the past 10+ years for State Fair.
      Ah well. I'm poor, so that's all I know. I love being outside and having fun with others at ethnic fests. There are plenty of other fairs all over SE WI, but the Lakefront is a good place to start. I've made connections and friends with the local ethnic organizations thru the fests. We pretty much just meet once a year at the fests, but it's still fun.

    I'm from Waupaca (born in Weyauwega though!) A few years ago i went on a trip with a group to Washington D.C. Our bus had groups from California and Kansas as well. Calling drinking fountains bubblers was second nature, so the other kids always got confused. We Wisconsinites decided the cold, refreshing fountains would be called bubblers, and the vast majority of warm, nasty water would be called water fountains.
    It's amazing how much fun you can have just by talking to people who have a different accent.

    About 10 years ago, I cashed a nice wager at Churchill Downs betting on a horse named MENASHA. I didn’t know it was named after a city in northern Wisconsin until about a year ago. Wisconsin is such a beautiful state, with just about the nicest people you will find.
    Well, just a few weeks ago, I noticed that Menasha the horse had a 2yo daughter running at Churchill. Needless to say, I had to make a bet...and the horse ran a huge 2nd at big odds of 90-1, and I cashed a nice PLACE bet. Yep, Menasha is a nice PLACE indeed.

    I was born in Shawano and have always gotten a kick out of the way folks pronounce it if they aren't local. Great place to be from (except for late winter). I'm proud to be from Wisgonsin (sic). Accent on the "Bay" in Green Bay, too. Sportscasters still get it wrong. They used to put the accent on "Green" to distinguish the "Bay" cities in the old NFL Central Division. It was GREEN Bay as opposed to TAMPA Bay. Cheeseheads say Green BAY to distinguish it from Greenfield, Green Lake and Greenwood.

    I think the best way to remember which spelling to use is depending Where You Are or how you're using it. Menomonee Falls, the town of Menomonie and there are numerous streets named Menomonee as well as a few rivers with the name Menomonee and I've seen those spelled various ways as well as the street names depending on what city the street is located in.

    Being originally from Cape Cod Massachusetts I can relate to this and remember not being able to pronounce some Wisconsin city names right myself. When we first moved to Antigo in 1987 and I saw the name Shawano, I used to pronounce it Shwano and people would correct me on its pronunciation and now I say it like I've always lived here.

    I love my home state of WI. Here's some I know the meanings: Wauwatosa--means firefly; Menomonee Falls--first word means 'wild rice people'; Ashwaubenon--part of it means 'white'; Mukwanago--place of the bears. Every state has native names--its fun to look them up--adds richness to our lives.

    Stoughton (Ron Pits called it Stauton, suburb of Madison)

    Viroqua (halfway from Richland Center to La Crosse)
    I'm sure there's others.

    Kids are graduating from High School and can't read. The issue here isn't the names being hard to pronounce but the fact they don't know how to break a word down into syllables. Waukesha was the only one they got close to right for the syllables.
