Chav - thought to come from the town Cheltenham, where the private school girls would use the term chav to describe the locals of Cheltenham, short for Cheltenham average. Typically drinking energy drinks on street corners, wearing track suits but never exercising, having greasy hair (which a girl would have in an excessively tight pony tail)

Get the Chav mug.A particular stereotype of anti-social youth dressed in sportswear. The word was popularised in the first decade of the 21st century by the British mass media to refer to an anti-social youth subculture in the United Kingdom. The Oxford English Dictionary defines chav as an informal British derogatory, meaning "a young lower-class person who displays brash and loutish behaviour and wears real or imitation designer clothes". The derivative chavette has been used to refer to females, and the adjectives chavvy, chavvish and chavtastic have been used in relation to items designed for or suitable for use by chavs. Good, chavvy names could include "Charlie", "JP", and "Tom".
