What frequency are you hearing this on? I'm trying to narrow down the search area looking on maps here:
SkyVector: Flight Planning / Aeronautical Charts
If you look at the world lo map in your area you'll see lots of triangles with 3-5 letter names, these tend to be the intersection labels.
To help you understand, there's the NOtice To AirMen (NOTAM) for Aivetnure 2013 (biggest flyin in the country):
http://www.airventure.org/flying/2013_notam.pdf They use the FISKE ("fisk") intersection as a reference point and to name the approach path. Many of the intersections are above a feature that carries a similar name, so FISKE is above a point where Fisk Road has a turn visible from the air; I think I've seen a few that mirror the name of manufacturing buildings beneath them, most seem nonsensical, but every so often I get an ah-ha moment when I match the intersection to google earth.
Once you find them on the intersection on the map, it's really not worth worrying about how or why it's named there, and think of them more like signs on the highway. As you approach an exit you get notices that you're 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4 miles out from and exit and the sign says what city or cross road the exit is; the same logic applies to the intersections, they're merely reference points that help pilots make sure they're at the right speed, altitude and location at the right time, as well as points to help ATC control the flow of aircraft. However instead of information on a sign, it's a dot on the map and then pilots can use other charts to determine the relevant information.
On a humor note, Cirrus Aircraft put this one on their website a while back:
A flight from the EAT VOR to Intersection BACON.
