In Australia bogan names are Americanised firstnames, they tend to either be derived from surnames (in the American cultural tradition they usually occur as the preservation of the mother's family name. This was originally an English convention and was therefore exported to the colonies), or they are made up amalgams of other names or complete inventions in their own right. As American globo-culture has spread, these names have begun to manifest in the English speaking world. To make these names unique, they are also spelt in numerous bizarre ways. A good example of a bogan name is Dylan. Originally an Irish surname, it is variously spelt; Dylan, Dylen, Dillon, Dillan, Dillen. Often, these names are borrowed from celebrities, so we have flocks of Brittanys and herds of Tysons.
Bogan names are gaining such prominence in Australia now, that soon the concept of bogan names, will be lost under a welter of tens of millions of suchlike.
It is a very clear result of America's cultural hegemony over the English speaking world, particularly.

The practice of going to a well known area where bogans congregate, or a typically bogan suburb, to observe the latest in bogan dramas (that is, women with cigarette voices screeching at their rat-tailed kids, and men in flannellette shirts swearing, drinking VB and saying lewd things to innocent passerbys) and developments in boganwear (like the slow decline of the mullet, to be replaced with the rat's tail).
A form of solipsism, with bogans as the subject.

Subgenre of film noir characterised by a contemporary Australian setting. Often has many of the characteristics of traditional film noir - a morally ambiguous protagonist, crime, existential themes - but features a cast of characters colloquially known as bogans. Examples include The Boys, Two Hands, The Square and Suburban Mayhem.

Random:
1. Someone of little significance
2. Everyone that you don't know and some that you do
Bogan:
1. Trailer trash
2. Your mother
3. see above
4. Look around, they are everywhere. Can often be found at Safeway or exploring Woolly bush while wearing a flannelette shirt, black acca-dacca t-shirt or wife basher singlet as well as tight black jeans and desert boots (DB's).
There are three main keys to correctly identifying a Bogan:
1. The obligatory packet of wini-blues rolled up in the sleeve to draw attention to the guns that they have developed from years of being a wanker;
2. The stubby or can of Victoria Bitter (VB); which also proves how little taste and class Bogans possess; and
3. The 'Mullet' the haircut with its own motto:
'Business at the front, party at the back'
in some circles also referred to as:
'Party at the back, business at the front'
Either way it is still a shit haircut
Random Bogan:
Look in the mirror; tell me what you see

I wish these Random Bogans would just get out of my way
There are so many Random Bogans here; it is not hot. I would go so far as to say that it is so Luke warm here right now
So little air, so many Random Bogans
Your mother is a Random Bogan.
That makes your father a 'Random Bogan Mother Fucker'.
Guess that must really suck for you; good thing that as you are also a Random Bogan, no-one really gives a fuck
Harden the fuck up; stop being a Random Bogan

Recently refurbished for an immoral quantity of Kroner through forced donations courtesy of the tax system, and filled up with freebie art, and 22 loos, - which defies reason for a family of 3, but qualifies the moniker Bogan Villa.

A misleading term referring to speed, whizz or goey. It implies that such drugs are prevalent amongst the bogan community but, of course, true bogans can't afford those drugs.
