What these villagers voted on makes asses burn!
Olley - The inhabitants of a small communityin eastern France want to be called "Burnt butts" in future.

The unconventional name received the most votes in a two-week vote to find a name for the inhabitants of the village of Olley.
Mayor David Buono told the German Press Agency in Paris that 89 people from the village of 200 souls halfway between Verdun and Metz took part in the vote. 42 votes were cast for "cul brûlé". All residents aged ten and over could take part.
"Cul brûlé" means "burnt bottom" or "burnt ass" in German and is therefore an extremely unusual name.
According to the local radio station France Bleu, the name was already in circulation as a nickname. Buono told the local newspaper "Le Républicain Lorrain" that the neighboring communities had called the people in Olley that.
However, it is not known exactly where the name actually comes from, Mayor Buono told dpa. "It is either a reference to the Thirty Years' War and the Swedish invasions, or it is a reference to the production of a medium-quality oil in the Middle Ages that blackened the bottom of the lamps," Buono explained.
Seven names to choose from: residents opt for "Burnt butts"

There were also seven other names to choose from in Olley, all of which were derived from the town's name.
In France, there are numerous possibilities for such names. For example, the inhabitants of Paris are called Parisiens, the people of Reims are called Rémois, anyone from Bordeaux is a Bordelais, and Bisontins live in Besançon.
Some people in Olley would probably have preferred such a classic name. Even when she was young, people talked about the term "cul brûlé", 70-year-old Madeleine told local broadcaster France Bleu during the vote.
"I always thought it was funny, it had neither hand nor foot." A suitable name should be chosen that does not cause confusion or have a negative undertone.
Resident Séverine, on the other hand, sees things differently: "I'm delighted with our name. It's our story," she told the local radio station France 3. "We are proud to be 'Culs brûlés'."
