Cleveland is a common place name in the US and Canada, but relatively few of these places are named directly after this region in England. Many of the towns, as well as two counties and a national forest, are named after US President [[Grover Cleveland]]. Other towns are named after the City of [[Cleveland]], Ohio, which in turn was named in honor of [[Moses Cleaveland]], a founder of the city.
