Mafeking Street in the Ibrox area of Glasgow. It might be named after a South African town where there was siege during the Boer War, but it has a very different meaning when pronounced with a Glaswegian accent!

If you look up at one of the tenement buildings on Byres Road in the West End of Glasgow, you'll see it bears the legend Victoria Cross. This seems odd until you find out that when it was built, Byres Road was called Victoria Street.
