Children are vague on geography and tend to assume that any place they know well is well-known to everyone. They will use obscure place names and get confused when you have never heard of them.
One of the kids I grew up with used to talk about his or her summers at "Haverdal". Neither of us had any idea of where it was on the map. Now I learn that it's a nature reserve in Halland, SW Sweden.
