Some years ago, John Hodgman, the guy who plays the "PC" character in those cheeky "PC versus Mac" commercials, came out with a song titled "700 Hoboes," in which he recited to appropriately bluegrassy background music the names of, well, 700 hoboes. (You can learn more about that worthy endeavor here.)
It seems to me you could something similar with gang or mob nicknames. Take the ones listed in the Mongols indictment (see post below):
Doc
Lil Rubes
Largo
Chiques
Listo
Bengal
Lars
Bumper
Rascal
Hank
Big Joe
Monster
Bouncer
Chente
Al the Suit
Mandog
Stamper
Peligroso
Reaper
Wolf
Scorpio
Risky
L.A. Bull
Solo
Negro
Wicked
Secret
Target
White Boy Jon
Kiko
Big Dog
Bullet
Steaky
Villain
Monk
Grumpy
Socks
Kermit
Speedy
Radone
Yo-Yo
Face
Mouth
Wapo
Suicide
Swifty
Spider
Dago Bull
Sick Boy
House
Serial Sam
Moreno
Danger
Punk Rock
Weto
Violent Ed
Danger (again)
Leatherface
Okay, I may be a bit naive in these matters, but it seems to me that if I was engaged in any type of nefarious activity whatsoever, I would work darn hard to make sure I wasn't called something like "Serial Sam," "Sick Boy," or "Violent Ed," on the one hand, and "Kermit," "Socks," "Grumpy," or "Rascal" on the other.
