American TikTok baffled over name of Australian…
Americans have been left questioning if Australia is “even a real place” after stumbling across the name of a tiny city in South Australia.
A US content material creator who goes by ‘Bavid Doughy’ set the web alight this week after coming across a small seashore city north of Adelaide referred to as Tiddy Widdy Beach.
The city, which has a population of just 195 people, is well-known for its vacation properties, crabbing spots and seashores.
The quirky name “comes from a well, located north of the town that was known to the local indigenous people as ‘Tiddy Widdy Ned’,” according to the SA tourism web site.
TikTok person BavidDoughy shared his latest discovery of the Australian city with the quirky name to his 329,000 followers.
In a clip with over 2 million views, the US creator delved into the realm via Google Maps – only to uncover there have been different hilarious names within the city.
“In Tiddy Widdy Beach, just off of Tiddy Widdy road, there’s a little bed and breakfast called the Schmidty at Tiddy Widdy,” he laughed.
“And one of the reviews for the Schmidty at Tiddy Widdy says, ‘Feeling giddy, doing a little diddy, being witty at The Schmidty.”
Aussies had been fast to flood the feedback with different weird names of cities and sights.
“There’s a cave in South Australia literally called “Well It Wasn’t There Last Year”,” stated one.
“There’s a suburb named Humpybong too,” added one other.
“Don’t forget about Mount Disappointment in Victoria,” laughed a third.
“We named a swimming pool after a prime minister who went swimming at the beach and disappeared so that tells you something,” added a fourth.

Confused Americans also chimed in, saying it was “more proof that Australia isn’t real.”
“This sounds like a Dr Seuss novel,” stated one.
“Cool so in Australia, things are either whimsical or terrifying. Nothing in between,” stated one other.
“Australia is a fever dream come to life,” laughed a third.
