Talk:List of geographic portmanteaus

Rename
Surely this should be renamed as List of border towns in the United States with portmanteau names, or perhaps the shorter List of United States border towns with portmanteau names? Ben Finn 22:09, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Other such places that are not towns
Perhaps we can add other geography than just towns. One such comes to mind is Lake Sangchris, Illinois (which is in Sangamon and Christian Counties) Bluecollarchessplayer 04:56, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Sylmar
According to George R. Stewart, Sylmar, California was named after a place on the border of Pennsylvania and Maryland (so named because Pen Mar was taken). —Tamfang (talk) 01:29, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Portmanteauitaric?
I can't find any references that firmly state that "portmanteauitaric" is the adjective form of portmanteau. In fact, the majority of results when you google it are copies of this very page. Should it be changed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nick.cash (talk • contribs) 02:55, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
