I don't think names of locations actually qualify as genuine portmanteaus, as the practice is extremely common.
I've just made up a portmanteau to describe Adrian Smith: awesomazing.

No.5 you crack me up! Portmanteau is a French word by origin.
But thanks to you and SMX, I received the answer I needed. You will soon find out why. Check the best of/worst of forum.

This is starting to sound like a make your own adventure book. "after going to the best of/worst forum, you can either A) go back to the madness forum,
General discussion forum or C) die a little inside.... "
OK, let me clarify what I meant then. Many location names are indeed portmanteaus. However, that practice - in that context - is very common. Usually, when people talk about portmanteaus, they omit common instances such as location names.
Wait a second - how often do people actually talk about portmanteaus? I'm a few decades old and this is the first time I've ever seen any discussion about them. Unless you count the Wikipedia article, which I know I've read in the past.
Ah! Maybe that holds the answer. ... ... ... No, it doesn't. But it does lead to this interesting list, which looks to contain a notable portion of bullshit.
Whoa! Is "bullshit" a portmanteau?

OK, sounds good. A decent red does go well with French Bread and extra matured Cheddar.____no5 said:I will not say to you a Bordeaux wine, it's very banal

But what is wrong with Bordeaux wines? Is that not where Clarets come from? Clarets do go well with Cheddar. Like Stilton and Port.
