Buddy Wayne Name

As in #buddywaynename - Buddy Wayne is a comedic figure of speech, a paraprosdokian of sorts. It consists of a proper name, two syllables in the first and one syllable in the last, which inherently means something else. Sally Forth (i.e. to set out in a sudden, energetic, or violent manner) is the ‘purest’ example of a Buddy Wayne Name (Allen Keys is pretty damn good, too), with a clearly recognizable first name consisting of two syllables, a believable last name with one, and a commonly understood alternate meaning, which is spelled correctly. Donny Brook (i.e. an inordinately wild, contentious, free-for-all brawl), although a very fine example of a Buddy Wayne Name (one of the greats, really), is tragically 'impure' due to the variance (two words in the #bwn, versus one in the original word).

Person asking stuff, now with an air of condescension: "Clever. Not pure, but clever. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, regardless."

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
