Unlike our main unusual, bizarre or humorous place names in the U.S. page, AUTOMOTIVE-related place names in the U.S., U.S. place names pivotal to the TV series LOST, HALLOWEEN place names in the U.S. and CHRISTMAS or holiday season place names, this page focuses exclusively on place names in the U.S. and around the world that are directly or indirectly associated with St. Valentine's Day. A few of these romantic or Valentine's Day towns no longer exist, while others have dwindled to just a few buildings. But they're all actual places, whose names have come to be linked with Valentine's Day or romance.

Since many of these Valentine's towns are smaller communities that might be less familiar to the reader, we also include the counties where many of these Saint Valentine's Day-themed place names are located.

Each of these cities, towns and place names has been officially recognized as a populated place by the U.S. government.

PUNCTUATION NOTE: The U.S. government does not use possessive apostrophes in U.S. place names. Even when proper punctuation would call for the use of a possessive apostrophe in a city or town name, they are not used. When the name of local businesses, or street names incorporate the town's name, that specific usage may utilize an apostrophe.

We are very gratified to learn that teachers are utilizing our various place name pages to successfully motivate their geography students. Educators incorporating these webpages in their lesson plans, report their students find geography more fun, and entertaining!
