Rat's Mouth sounds so much less appealing

I looked up the meaning of Boca Raton and I got a headache.  For example, here is an excerpt from Wikipedia:  "The origin of the name Boca Raton is disputed.^[6] In Spanish "Boca" means "mouth" and "Ratón" means "mouse" (not "rat" as is it is commonly mistranslated). However, in nautical terms the word "boca" refers to an inlet. The original name "Boca de Ratones" appeared on eighteenth-century maps associated with an inlet in the Biscayne Bay area ofMiami. By the beginning of the nineteenth century, the term was mistakenly moved north to its current location on most maps and applied to the inland waterway from the closed inlet north for 8.5 miles (13.7 km), which was called the "Boca Ratones Lagoon." The word "ratones" appears in old Spanish maritime dictionaries referring to "rugged rocks or stony ground on the bottom of some ports and coastal outlets, where the cables rub against."^[7] Therefore, the abridged translation defining "Boca de Ratones" is "a shallow inlet of sharp-pointed rocks which scrape a ship's cables."^[8]".
Enough out of you, Alex Trebec!  In my dictionary, Boca Raton means "fun escape" and here are some photographs to prove it.
