'Lustful' street sparks confusion

Some residents of Lustful Court, a neighbourhood in Macon, central Georgia in the US, say they're tired of being kidded and want the street's sin-friendly name changed.

Bibb County Commissioner Lonzy Edwards brought up a possible name change Tuesday after receiving complaints.

Lustful Court resident Michelle Washington says the name sparks laughter and confusion when she tells people where she lives.

Yoshonda Patterson says she thinks the name gives people the wrong idea about the neighborhood.

After listening to residents, commissioners decided they'll consider the change if neighbors start a petition.

The street is in a subdivision and no one could recall where the name originated.

Macon is about 144km south of Atlanta, the capital of Georgia.
