It may not be the news -- but it's news to me. I had actually never heard that particular theory as to how the ten-gallon hat got its name.

He's named after the lesser known Caesar, Wonktavius, from which we get the word wonktastic.

Yeah, it never caught on.

It could also come from something meaning roughly "very handsome" or "dashing" or such. In Mexican Spanish, the expression tan galan is often used to comment on a well dressed man or an appealing article of a man's clothing.
