I really couldn't say why for sure, but I get that feeling from it, too. I suppose all the Travises I've ever known fit that image. I think that since it has that western/country feel, that =trashy/tacky to a lot of people. Country-ish names are red-neck-y. It might get the country vibe from the country singer
Travis Tritt? I don't know. It's also quite dated to the 70s/80s, which doesn't help.
I will say that I saw some newscaster or something on TV yesterday whose first and last names were
Travis Bartholomew, and I really liked that as a fn mn combo. It made me sort of see
Travis in a more polished way if it were in the right context.
