Oregon Town Names

We are learning that apparently anyone can make up a town name in Oregon. We knew about Boring,OR, but the towns of Lonely, Plush, Dairy, Wonder and Brothers were new discoveries. Oregon also has a Fall River and a town named John Day. That is not the Mayor, it is the town. I guess this should be expected in a state that has a county named "Malheur", which literally means Bad Smell.
Guess the locals have a sense of humor.
