The This Day in History section made me laugh today, talking about the Grand Tetons mountains in Wyoming. Big Tits mountains just doesn't have the same caché, n'est-ce pas
Early French Voyageurs used the name "les Trois Tétons" (the three breasts). It is likely that the Shoshone people once called the whole range Teewinot, meaning "many pinnacles"
Turns out I wasn't strictly accurate, they should be really called the Big Nipples Mountains. The French name is incorrect as well, they should strictly speaking be called the Gros Tétons.
