Witchita Grim, definitely, with "Pinkeye" Higgins a close second.

Do you watch Deadwood??? If not, you surely should.

Oh, I'm a sucker for alliteration.

Cornelius Crake.

i dunno why, but Wichita Grim sends shivers up my spine...

Talia Reed said...

Hannibal Hogswaller

Erica Ridley said...

Oooh, Cornelius Crake. My clear favorite. Wichita Grim isn't bad either.

I do like Ezra for a first name and both Hogswaller and Darkwater for last names.

Erica <-- who probably didn't help narrow down the choices any =)

I'm partial to Wichita Grim.

I was liking Jed Scratchett until I realized that there are parts of the country where plenty of nice boys are named Jed. Now, I'm into Hannibal Hogswaller, which is great for reading out loud.

Jed Scratchett and Ezra Retch get my vote!

I didn't read the comments before I picked my choice, but it's Wichita Grim all the way. Seriously, if you don't use that, you have sign a release saying you relinquish all rights and auction it on ebay.

"have TO sign" of course.
