Sometimes name it after a person, or some shit that went down there, especially if its not someplace important. Like its not the nightmare town, there’s nothing particular about it. So it’s susanstown, and attempts to discover local lore would find stories about the ancient founder that have been embellished over the years.
or invert it… Nightmare Town is named because the founder had a nightmare the first night after establishing camp there, and nothing else. Susan’s Hamlet, though had some real fucked up shit happen, is actively haunted and is the birthplace of the BBEG.
My d&d game tends to work better when I just name things like “The Nightmare Wood” and “The Old Hills”. The simplicity somehow lands harder.
