S.E. Hinton chose names like Ponyboy, Sodapop, and Dally in "The Outsiders" to reflect the distinctiveness and individuality of each character. These unique names help to emphasize the outsider status of the Greasers and add to the gritty, urban atmosphere of the novel.
The Greaser's names are: Ponyboy Curtis, Sodapop Curtis, Darrel (Darry) Curtis, Dallas (Dally) Winston, Johnny Cade, Keith (Two-Bit) Mathews, and Steve Randall. By the way I love this book and the movie. RIP Johnny and Dally! Johnny will always be gold! it is some boys who are poor and live in the east side and they have long and greasy hair
