Fort Necessity (fort nessessitee)
Spean Bridge, pronounced spee-an.
Forte is only pronounced 'for-tay' if referring to strongly played music. When referring to a personal strength or area of expertise, it is (supposed to be) pronounced as one syllable, 'fort'.
It was named after General Thomas Sumter, a hero of the American Revolution. Therefore it is spelled without a "p". It is pronounced as if it does have a "p" but it really doesn't.
There are probably too many to list, but here are a few: Fort Belvoir Fort Bragg Fort Bridger Fort Chaffee Fort Collins/Loveland Fort Devens Fort Dodge, IA Fort Eustis Fort Hood, TX Fort Indiantown Fort Irwin Fort Jefferson Fort Knox Fort Lauderdale, FL Fort Leavenworth Fort Leonard Wood Fort Madison Fort Meade Fort Myers, FL Fort Pierce Fort Polk Fort Richardson Fort Riley, KS Fort Scott Fort Sheridan Fort Sill Fort Smith Fort Stockton Fort Sumner Fort Wayne, IN Fort Worth, TX Fort Yukon
Quiatenon (or Ouiatenon) seems to be a major village of the Wea tribe, who were themselves part of the Miami people. In an early French account the word is written Oui-a-tanon. This is said to mean "Wea Town", so it seems very likely that the initial O has been mistaken for a Q at some time, changing the word from OUIA-tanon (pronounced Weatanon) to QUIAtenon. This misunderstanding is typical of European difficulties with native languages.
