I think that [snip]the Hog's Head Inn grew out of the "hog-" prefix
and the colorful names of English towns and inns in general.

One prior use of "Hogs Head" I can think of, just for fun:
"Over men and horses hoops and garters
Lastly through a hogshead of real fire!
In this way Mr. K will challenge the world!"
"Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite", the Beatles.
