* ''SuperMarioBros'': The Mushroom Kingdom.

* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePony'''s G3/G3.5 specials have Ponyville.
** ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' has its own version of Ponyville. Series creator Lauren Faust originally wanted it to take place in [[JustForPun Fillydelphia]], but she got the ExecutiveVeto on that idea. Fillydelphia and similarly equine-pun-on-real-place names [[note]]Baltimare, Manehatten, Las Pegasus, Canterlot and Trottenham for example [[/note]] are the rule.
** For bonus points, Ponyville is located in the kingdom of ''Equestria''.
** Don't forget the Ponyville in ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTales''.

* In ''WesternAnimation/APupNamedScoobyDoo'', the gang lives in a town named Coolsville.

** Balmora and Sadrith Mora (in ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsIIIMorrowind'') are this in-universe, assuming you know Dunmeri (the native language of the region) or Aldmeri (Dunmeri's predecessor language and commonly known by scholars) -- Bal is stone and Mora is forest, so the city of Balmora is a 'stone forest', and Sadrith means mushroom, which may seem strange until you find out Sadrith Mora ('mushroom forest') is the major Vvardenfell city of the Telvanni.. who build their houses out of giant mushrooms they grow and shape. And then, of course, there's Vivec City, home of one of the Dunmer peoples' [[PhysicalGod Physical Gods]], Vivec.

* In Creator/LarryNiven's ''Known Space'' series, some cities have a bit of this. The main city on Jinx (in the Sirius system) appears to be Sirius City, and the name of the Kzinti homeworld in their language translates to "Kzinhome." There are also the worlds Plateau and Canyon, named after their most distinctive features (and only habitable locations; the one for Plateau is actually called Mount Lookitthat, but it ''is'' a plateau, or more properly a mesa). There's also Crashlanding City, capital of We Made It (natives of which planet are called crashlanders).

And then, of course, there's the home city of the Dunmer PhysicalGod Vivec, Vivec City.

* Panau City, the capital of the nation of Panau, in ''VideoGame/JustCause2''
