Sometimes a person (usually a woman) might be nicknamed after the city he/she comes from. For example, a woman from Dallas, Texas working in Los Angeles might be called "Dallas." Similarly, a woman from Seattle might be nicknamed "Seattle," and a woman from Virginia Beach might be called "Virginia Beach."

They are a form of clarification. Fred lives in Kansas City, Missouri. Adding 'Missouri' tells us that he does not live in Kansas City, Kansas.
