I pick Minneapolis. Just kinda rolls off the tongue a bit.

Close seconds would include Denver, Baltimore, Honolulu, Anchorage, Atlanta, and Jacksonville (for the heritage of the name).

Not really major but other names I like are Lexington, Cheyenne, and Kalamazoo.

Chicago sounds very unique, tough and classy. No other city or name like it!

It pains me to say this because im from philly, but the boroughs sound awesome; Bronx, Brooklyn, Staten Island...theyre awesome. I also like Cincinnatti, Pheonix, and Detroit(if it were pronounced in French)
