Where does the term pudden tane come from What's your name Pudden Tane aske me again and I'll tell ya the same?

Answer 1

Oh, dude, "pudden tane" is just a fun way of saying "put and take" in a Southern accent. It's like when you mix up words for a good laugh. So, if you ask me my name again, I'll probably still say "Pudden Tane" because, hey, why mess with a classic joke, right?

Answer 2

The term "pudden tane" is a colloquial variation of the phrase "put and take." This expression likely originated in Scotland or Northern England and is used to convey a sense of consistency or predictability. The rhyme you provided is a playful way to emphasize the steadfastness of the individual being addressed.

from the little rascals?

Here's another thought on the subject, from www.takeourword.com

From Noah: Thank you for your issues. All are wonderful. OK, I feel I have to defend your grandmother. The quote she gave is not a form of vulgarity (I believe). There was a song from the 60s by The Alley Cats called "Puddin' n' Tain (Ask Me Again, I'll Tell You the Same)". She may have gotten it from there. If that is too late, the original quote is from (I believe) a short story called "The King of Boyville" from the book The Real Issue by William Allen White in 1896. The quote is: When a new boy, who didn't belong to the school, came up at recess to play, Piggy shuffled over to him and asked him gruffly: "What's your name?" "Puddin' 'n' tame, ast me agin an' I'll tell you the same," said the new boy, and then there was a fight. That is the earliest example I found of that expression. It may have been a well-known expression before then. There is an online copy of the story at http://ww.ukans.edu/carrie/kancoll/books/white/index.html Thanks for those quotations, Noah. Those jibe with what we've found. However, think about the phrases puddin' 'n' tame and puddin' 'n' tain: they mean nothing. Where did they come from? Probably from people hearing poont*ng (and perhaps not knowing what it meant) and converting that into something a little more recognizable. That would also explain why the phrase is only used as a proper name in those quotes. No one knew quite what to do with it other than that. (That's our semi-educated guess, anyhow.) FriPilot

Answer 4

The term "pudden tane" likely originated as a humorous way to say "putten dane," which is a dialectal way of saying "put 'un down." The rhyme you provided is a playful response to being asked a question, suggesting that the person's name is "Pudden Tane" and that they will repeat it if asked again.
