KotzenThis town in Brandenburg has a quite unfortunate meaning in German: the verb kotzen means to vomit. In German the verb wanken means to stumble or stagger, so it would be “stagger town”. The name supposedly comes from the Middle High German word Ellende, meaning “foreign land”, according to Die Welt. And the name Sorge also comes from a Middle German word for border, Zarge, according to Die Welt. RammelsbachWith a combination of the German verb rammeln and the noun Bach, this town name would roughly translate to "screwing creek".
