I have it from a friend who did Greek at school that Gigalo- and Megalo- actually come from different roots than Giga- and Mega-. So Gigalopolis doesn't necessarily mean "city of a billion inhabitants".

Sleeping egg?

Meta Junglira?

Gene Gadget?

Gimmick Mountain?

Scrambled Egg?

And why has no one mentioned Clock Ork zone? Sure, it was from a beta, and sure it was supposed to be "ClockWork", but it's still damn freaky.
