Titera's Tidbit: Nome
The faraway point in Alaska owes its origin to a note on a British admiralty chart reading "? name", as in, "What is this place called?" When the chart was converted to a printed map, the draftsman rendered this as Cape Name, which the engraver mistakenly read as Cape Nome. "Nome" it has been ever since.
