Katie really left her mark on this small town …

Nobody knows where the name comes from or what it actually means, but residents of Embden, Maine are still torn on whether or not to keep one hilarious thoroughfare titled the way it is. As of now, Katies Crotch Road is costing taxpayers hundreds of dollars a year to replace its missing signs, most of them reportedly unhinged from thieves and apparent collectors of pun-heavy road markers.

“You put it up and in a week’s time it’s down again,” Charles Taylor of the town’s Board of Selectmen tells a local paper. “You would think every dorm room in the state of Maine should have one by now.”

In 2012 residents were asked to vote in favor of changing the name to simply "Katie Road" — a moniker not at all hilarious or newsworthy. Soon the people of Embden will be asked to rename it again, this time to "Cadie Road" — so if someone wasn't exactly sure about the whole rebranding thing because of one pesky letter (the least attractive letter in the English alphabet, to be frank), they're now offered a name that looks like auto-correct had its way with it.
