Vom Wort crawfish, der Flusskrebs ("You get a line and I'll get a pole / We goin ' down the crawdad hole / Honey, baby, mine", "What you gonna do when the pond goes dry/I'm gonna stand on the bank, and watch the crawdads die/Honey, baby, mine" - Big Bill Broonzy, The Crawdad Song; auch Sonny Terry und Brownie McGhee, Crawdad Hole).
