Names from the South?

General Name Discussion
1

[name]Just[/name] wondering if anyone here have any names that you associate particularly with the southern states of the US?

Some names that I associate with the South is such names as [name]Memphis[/name] & [name]Tennessee[/name], which are both quite obvious, but I love them. Then I also have [name]Harley[/name], [name]Flynn[/name] (even though I know it is Irish) and [name]Ray[/name].

Would be really nice to hear if you have any suggestions! :smiley:
