City "titles"
Julian:
The itty bitty village I live in, and the (slightly) larger town nearby, pop. approx 5,000, have no real nickname, however we are located in the Valley of Love. ;D
One of the local nicknames for the slightly-larger town however, would trip the filters. The other is milder - and I've seen it on a spoof T-shirt - "London New York Paris Norfick". I sooo have to get one of them...
(and anyone who knows Tassie - yup, think I just outed myself!)
SamiHami:
I live in the Holy City. Sounds pretty special, huh? It's because we have dozens of beautiful old churches in our city. Church steeples dot our skyline (there are no tall buildings here...the tallest one I can think of is 10 stories, so no skyscrapers to obliterate the view). It's very pretty.
Smitty:
I live in Guelph, ON, aka the Royal City.
I used to live in Toronto, aka Hogtown.

Is that Rockhampton?
I live in Marvellous Melbourne, The Food Capital of Australia
