the nickname "bubba"...?

lol a big fat guy in jail who loves little men.

An old film and a joke that will b round 4 eva!

I do not know where this name Bubba originates from. But I am from Kentucky. The city, not the mountain part. My family is quite educated. I have an older brother whose name is actually Rodney but for some reason we have always just called him Bubba. But only within the family. Everyone else calls him Rod. Their are rednecks everywhere. Ky. just gets a bad rap for some reason.

I have a friend that has a older boy and a baby girl. She calls her oldest son bubba as a nickname for brother. Maybe its a nickname for brother, not sure where it came from though.

nah...it's just a nickname..i dont know where it came from but i have heard of people being called bubba

Chiefly Southern U.S. Brother.

A white working-class man of the southern United States, stereotypically regarded as uneducated and gregarious with his peers.

well its from the south....i live in alabama and here we call our son bubba (he has 2 sisters, sissy) it is a southern thang i guess you would say. it doesnt mean retarted or anything just a lil nick name

bubba is a guy who hammers young fresh prisoners in jail....doggy style

when i say bubba i think to a big, very fat guy that is very stupid and loves to watch TV with chips and popcorns near him...

its a southern thing. like a country or redneck guy, or big brother. thats what we say down here

I'm thinking it has to do with Rednecks for some reason.
