Lifelong Buckeye here, too.

It won’t work for the OP, since it’s city and state, but for you, Elendil’s Heir, there is “Columbus Ohio” from the movie Zombieland.

I remember reference to “Columbus,” but I thought all the characters in *Zombieland *(great movie!) went by the names of the cities they were from, not including the state.

@Why_Child

In at least one episode of Phineas and Ferb, there was a character named “Ohio Flynn.” Maybe that would work for the OP?

Hmm. Wonder why IMDB didn’t have that?

@dtilque

…Is New Jersey his last name, first name, or a combination of both? The Wiki page calls him “Dr. Sidney Zweibel/New Jersey”. So maybe it’s a nickname.

Yes, a nickname, I thought.

Jeff Goldblum’s IMDB page lists his character as “New Jersey” only, FWIW.

[Ukulele_Ike]

Yeah, they referred to him as “Jersey” because he dressed like a cowboy. Oh, and he was from Jersey.

I’d forgotten that he was also Dr. Zweibel. His performance could bring you to tears.

Nicknames are OK for this list. He’s in.

The IMDb is not the only reference I use here. No database is perfect, so it’s best to consult more than one to get the full story.
