Walkers
"Walker" is a term for a member of the legions of the mobile deceased, who have come to dominate the world following the outbreak of the contagion that spawned them. This is the term used most frequently by Rick Grimes's and Lee Everett's respective groups of survivors, and to refer to reanimated corpses who are not dormant.

A White Walker is the undead in the show Game of Thrones. Very hard to kill. Ron Johnson has white hair and white skin with little color so thus the name.
