Yes;

 

https://metro.co.uk/2022/09/08/three-areas-called-dull-boring-and-bland-named-trinity-of-tedium-17322748/

 

"The union of three areas named ‘Dull’, Boring’ and ‘Bland’ has apparently made things much more exciting for locals.

Dull, a village in Perthshire, Scotland was paired with the town of Boring in Oregon, US in 2012.

Five years later, people in a town called Bland in New South Wales, Australia, decided they wanted in on the act.

Ever since then, they have been informally known as the ‘Trinity of Tedium’."
