WE have a Tampico near here... Reagans Birthplace, not 20 miles from here via road I bet, The old fella that used to own this place went to school with him one year (Fellow was a a very bright young guy who went from school house to school house every year to learn more from a different teacher, or so his daughters told us...
Most of our towns around here are either named after some sort of deposit (Coal City, Coal Valley, Mineral) or some other geographic feature... Well, that and Native American tribes and old European Explorers.. Gotta love the french Explorer names with a thick Chicago accent.. Lovely..
Now, you get around Chicago and everything is something grove, something park or something else that sounds all pretty... I can tell you there are no Elk in Elk Grove Village and the Brook in Oak Brook isn't nearly as pretty as one might think, lol.
