toe-tag
Corpse identification label
A toe-tag is the identification tag attached to a corpse's toe in a morgue, listing name, date of death, and other details.
The term evokes death itself: If you keep driving like that, you'll end up with a toe-tag.
As a verb, to toe-tag someone is to kill them or mark them as dead: The coroner toe-tagged three victims that night.
