Ewbanks [sic], IL as well as lots of Eubankses or Eubansi or Eubanksen, whatever
Many of which provide loads of possibilities for some seriously gutbusting humor, for those six people who've heard of any of these places. Note that many of these are classed as "populated places", a category that includes Eugene, OR, which even I have heard of; but it also includes (as a non-Eu example) Griffin's Corners, located at the corner of Griffin Road and Route 80 in New York, a couple miles from where I used to live; "populated" in that instance means "there are two houses on that corner, maybe three". So what I'm saying is, some of these places might be so obscure, the people who live there never heard of 'em.

I hope this has been no help whatsoever.
