I have an informal "Donga" collection myself! I have Camel Donga, Big Rock Donga, and my latest - Billy Goat Donga.
Still seeking Johnny's Donga and Dingo Pup Donga.....and now, apparently, Donga Donga which I didn't even know existed!
I am in Alaska and still hoping that the heavens deposit something in:
Chicken
Eek
Kinnickinnick
Chackachatna
Dead Horse
Nogahabara
Eureka
Knik
Unalakleet
Koyokuk
Good News Bay
Mary's Igloo
Sleetmute
Aleknagik
Kongiganak
....you get the idea. I think we'd give those Austrialian meteorites a run for their money!

Hi Dave,
Shoot, I'd pay extra for those names!
I really like Australian names, particularly anything ending in "Donga."
My favorite: Donga Donga
Local names around here might include: Rincon Springfield Pooler Garden City Thunderbolt (not bad, though) Guyton Register Tybee Denmark (has one stop light, no wait it's a four way crossing) Hopeulikeit (no kidding) Statesboro (oops, already taken)
Not very imaginative!

Dear List; I would suppose no one has cold hunted locations specifically to find a meteorite that could be named a more valuable name, except maybe that Beer Bottle Pass character....(just kidding John), but, I have composed a list of local locations with interesting names that may add/detract from the value of the meteorite on name image alone. Feel free to offer comment.
Boar's Tusk Whiskey Buttes Church Buttes Little Mountain Butcherknife Draw Little America Little Firehole Big Firehole Bitter Creek Massacre Hill Diamond Mountain Vermilion Creek Black Rock (and my favorite) Star Valley *Some, like Black Rock and Vermillion Creek may be previously taken I suspect.
