15. Here in So. Cali, the worse names
are fake Spanish, trying to blend in.

"El Segundo"
The Second. The second what? (Atlantic Richfield Pacific coast refinery #2 is what it's named after. No lie.)

"Miramar"

"Rancho San Panasquitos"
Ranch of Saint Cute Little Rocks. ?

"Las Pulgas"
The Fleas. Great name for a housing development.

"El Camino Real"
The King's Road. Another housing development.
