he name "Poo Poo" Point came from the sound of the logging steam whistles.

Surrrrrrrrre.

Pee Pee Creek derives its name from Major Paul Paine, a pioneer settler who added his initials to a tree which stood along its banks.

Surrrrrrrrre.

Shortly after it was incorporated into the Witless Bay Ecological Reserve in 1983, its name was changed from "Pebble Island" to "Pee Pee Island". Its current name makes it the subject of various online memes and jokes, which some believe to be a deliberate or accidental reference to a penis.

That's more like it.
