Which of these isn't a name in "The Outsiders"?
Half of Hollywood's A-list got their start playing tough-talking greasers in 1983's "The Outsiders." And while the cast might've had names like Rob, Ralph, and Tom, the characters were called things a little more... out there. Which of these names never made it into the gang's roster?
▼
Correct Answer: Switchblade
When a name in a story is supposed to reflect personalities and roles, you'd think a group of teens carrying around switchblades would have a guy named Switchblade but nope. And while "Two-bit" was a nickname, Ponyboy and Sodapop were actual birth certificate names. Imagine being a nurse and asking a mother what she wants to name her new bundle of joy and she simply says "Sodapop." Let's just say I'm glad author S. E. Hinton didn't get to name me.
