Tilambuco ?
(Brazil, humorous) A fictitious toponym used solely to trick someone when asking them about its demonym (it is expected that, by analogy to, for example, Pernambuco, whose demonym is "pernambucano", one would respond that a person born in Tilambuco is a "tilambucano", which sounds similar to "te lambo o cano", literally "I lick your pipe", with "pipe" being a metaphor for penis)
