why is every English town named “new southwest worcesterwyckhamshirehampton-upon-the-balls” and pronounced like “woshampton”

there's like requirements you have to meet:

1. be at least 8 different words or other place names stuck together

2. have some weird phrase with dashes at the end

3. dumb prefix

4. be pronounced in two syllables even though the word is spelled with 75 letters
