What other silly names can we give jeans?

A thread about Carrot jeans? I've seen it all now.

It was bad enough when Mom and Boyfriend jeans started, now we've got barrel and carrot.

It was already hard enough to buy a pair of jeans that looked good. Now you've got to wade through so many styles with ridiculously stupid names!

What's next?

Broccoli jeans (bumpy in places)?
Wheel jeans (big circle for your legs)?

Cauliflower - for those of us who are rounder and lumpier than we once were.

I wonder if it's to push people back into shops? I got some jeans from next earlier in the year and had to go into the shop to make sense of the shapes.i bought them online as they didn't have the size and colour I wanted but it did allow me to find a nice pair somewhere between a straight cut and a bootleg

Next are selling stove pipe jeans.
I think a range of jeans modelled after furniture legs would be great.

Chippendale. Basic ordinary style, but you can take them off really quick.
