FUCKING , Wikipedia RULEZ!

Fucking (IPA: [ˈfʊkɪŋ], SAMPA: ["fUkIN]) is a small settlement (population c. 150), part of the municipality of Tarsdorf, in the Innviertel region of western Upper Austria, located at 48° 02′ 60″ N 12° 50′ 60″ E, bordering Bavaria. It is near the city of Salzburg. The village is known to have existed as "Fucking" since at least 1070 and is named after a man from the 6th century called Focko. "Ing" is an old Germanic suffix meaning "people"; thus Fucking, in this case, means "place of Focko's people".

The name, spelled identically to the gerund form of the English profanity "fuck", is often found amusing by Anglophones.
