Cheers. I see some of your State names are as uninventive as ours. 🇦🇺
Actually, I should have recognised it from the words of a song:
"And away I did ride,
Just as fast as I
Could from the West Texas town of El Paso
Out to the bad-lands of New Mexico."

Wow! I have not heard that song before. I sung it in my head nevertheless as I was reading it.
My kids think it is funny when I do that to books I am reading to them, where they do not specify it is a song, and I break out a ballad of the words I am reading. Those words are supposed to be a song. Fun times.
Regarding the uninvintive names for States, this applies to City names as well. I cannot think of an odd one right now. However, they are out there.
