Re: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilio gogogoch
I thought you pressed on some random keys for a long long time 
Still  though 
There is also such a place in Oceania (a hill in New Zealand to be exact) wich has such a log "typo-like" name.

The name on the sign that marks this hill is "Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapik imaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu", which translates roughly as The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one. At 85 letters, it is one of the longest place names in the world.

Actually, they just write T'tahu as the location name. Read it somewhere.
