Eye on Texas - Today is the letter C. Let's visit Cut and Shoot, Texas (population 1000) and located near Houston.

per Wikipedia:
According to one local legend, Cut and Shoot was named after a 1912 community confrontation that almost led to violence. According to differing versions of the story, the dispute was either over:^[4]

• The design of a new steeple for the town's only church,
• The issue of who should be allowed to preach there, or
• The conflicting land claims among church members.

Whatever the circumstances were, a small boy at the scene reportedly declared "I'm going to cut around the corner and shoot through the bushes in a minute!" This statement apparently stayed in the residents' minds and was eventually adopted as the town's name.^[5] It has frequently been noted on lists of unusual place names.<sup>[6][7]


Bonus -  Downton Abbey's Countess Violet to Lord Grantham - Your father always told the village what they wanted.

funny how a tv show quote could apply to old Cut and Shoot back in the day. However, their town name would probably be very bland.</sup>
