Cletus, aka Anacletus, was an early Pope. How did the name get associated with yokels? (The Dukes of Hazzard & The Simpsons helped, but...)

yeah. Is there a Cletus mentioned in the Bible though? A Catholic would know the name but not most Protestants. Greek name.
-
is Cletus an authentic hick name, or one ascribed to hicks by non-hicks with other background?
-
that's one thing I wonder. Maybe it's lapsed Catholics who heard it at Mass and thought it sounded a hick name.
