The demand for a village name change is not the first incident. Earlier in 2007, about 15 residents of the village of Fjuckby, which is also a village in Sweden, tried a similar move, but the attempt failed.

Then, in Austria, a townsman named F***ing asked for a name change. lucky enough to change its name to Fugging. Their demands ended sweetly, the name of the village was changed in January 2021.
