The longest place name in the world belongs to Taumatawhakatangi­hangakoauauotamatea­turipukakapikimaunga­horonukupokaiwhen­uakitanatahu, New Zealand. It is a Maori word for a hill in the country's North Island. While some place names in the world are very short, there are places with names that are exceptionally long. Often times, these place names will be shortened for both ease of reference and pronunciation. However, their original long names live on in infamy. 

OMG!

Taumatawhakatangi­hangakoauauotamatea­turipukakapikimaunga­horonukupokaiwhen­uakitanatahu

Who on Earth made up that name?
