It can be really amusing to discover some of the stranger names of cities across the U.S., but what about street names? There are some very funny and odd street names out there, and one could say that's even more the case with street names than cities, because there are more street names out there and usually a less strict naming process.

There's a lot in a street name, too. Countless people have decided to buy or not buy a home or property on a certain street because of its name. Now, a new report out names the funniest street name in every state in the U.S., and it's a fascinating find.

Before we get to the state, let's look at a street name that is truly hilarious and unbelievable. "Booger Hollow Road" is a street located in the town of Dadeville, Alabama.

So, let's get to New Jersey and the state's strangest street name. Reader's Digest picks the weirdest street name to be Shades of Death Road, located in Warren County, New Jersey. That's a scary one.
