Most Bohan avenues are named after real-life prisons, with Alcatraz Avenue, Rykers Avenue, Sing Sing Avenue, San Quentin Avenue, and Guantanamo Ave being five notable examples, while others are named after breakdancing moves, such as Worm Street, Spin Street, Applejack Street and Valdez Avenue. In real life, 'Bohan' is an Irish surname, which is roughly a diminutive of the word 'buadhach' meaning 'victorious'. According to the in-game Public Broadcasting documentary, Bohan is a Dutch word meaning 'Dutch word' (although this is false, as the real Dutch word for 'Dutch word' is 'Nederlandse woord').
