A form of Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Anything that sounds like it belongs to a proud resident of the Deep South can indicate someone Badass, Ax Crazy, rapey, racist or otherwise seriously disturbed.
Examples of Names to Run Away From Really Fast/Redneck Names include:
Comic Books[]
- Carnage's real name is Cletus Kasady.
- The Authority: Seth Angus Bubba Joe Billy Cletus Clement Callum Cowie. His Mom named him after all of her brothers, because she wanted to be sure to name him after his father.
- Zebediah freaking Killgrave is now a threefer. He's an evil guy, to be sure, but he's not nearly as Badass as that name makes him sound.
- Willy Pete. Ax Crazy, rapey, and on fire.
Film[]
- Zed
- Budd and Buck
- The killer in The Nail Gun Massacre turns out to be a guy named Bubba.
Folklore and Mythology[]
- While not particularly evil, you don't want to be putting the hopes of your baseball team on a guy named Casey, especially if he's the last guy at bat.
Live-Action TV[]
- Buffy the Vampire Slayer 's season six Big Bad is named Warren Mears, which kind of foreshadows his future mental instability. (Of course, ironically, the actor's a Jew from New York, although his chick's from Alabama, but she's definitely not a redneck. And she's the one he shot.)
- Shane Vendrell is not a nice person. Further, he uses the alias "Cletus van Damme".
