For example, I was doing research for a blog article and found a paper by a guy named Christian Messenger. That man was definitely destined for missionary work, but the paper was about football.
Had a religious studies teach called Mrs Holyland
I work in dairy company, once I was checking SAP for something and saw a name-surname “Olgun Erkek” (Mature Male in Turkish). We are receiving his raw milk, it is like porn name when you picture it like that.
My husband’s vasectomy was performed by Dr. Wiener.
Was his first name Xavier? Dr. X Wiener?
Lol, that would be sweet. He apparently did not have a good sense of humor. My husband is an identical twin, and his brother got a vasectomy from Dr. Wiener a week prior. So my husband walks in and says “Don’t worry doc, you didn’t screw up, I’m just the twin.” The doctor barely looked up from his notes and said “I know.”
Up until a few years ago there was a local urologist named Richard Chop, and Dr. Peter Ruff is still seeing clients. Nominative determinism is a thing.
gestures vaguely at Hideo Kojima’s games.

My name is Hugh G Rection.
Architect or porn star?
Just kind of a dick.
You can emberd images by using
You shared a link to it, you didn’t embed it. Which meant I had to click the link to see the image, rather than it just being in the comment. Like this
Weird, when I view it the picture is already there, I don’t have to click anything. I’m guessing it’s a federation thing since we’re from different instances. Does the ! at the beginning embed it for all instances instead of just my home instance? Like, is this one embedded for you?
Yes, you need to include the ! at the beginning
I learned something today!

There was a racing driver named Scott Speed. Unfortunately he’s got no speed.
That’s OK we still have Usain Bolt.
This is gonna sound fake, but I knew a butcher named Butch Pig. He was Butch before he was a butcher
Kid at school named Miles Long.
Have you seen his…
You know…

I used to work in a call center and once took a call from a guy named Jacob J. Justice. Guy should’ve been a Marvel superhero.
I work in a 911 dispatch center, we used to have a frequent caller in our area whose first name contained the word “trash,” and, well, they were trashy. We had cops there pretty much every day for some dumb trashy domestic bullshit.
Also took a call from a guy who’s name was very similar to “Roger Rogar.” Not his actual name, given the nature of my job I don’t want to give out any potentially identifiable information about my callers, but same basic pattern, first name exactly the same as his last name except for one letter and, at least as well as I could hear over the phone, pronounced exactly the same.
Also a truly dumbfounding amount of girls named things like princess and diamond.
trash
Was it one of those commonly compounded first names like Marylou, Maryann, or Marytrash?
Or a judge
I went to college with a girl whose dad was a firefighter captain with the last name Justice. They actually did make a comic about him because he was a Captain of the firefighters.
There are several dentists in my area that have the last name of Beaver. They’re all related and it seems like the original one felt like that was too good of an opportunity to pass up on, and subsequent generations joined the family business.
It was that or gynaecologist, am I right (I am)?
There’s a dental dam joke in there somewhere
Lisa needs braces
The pilot on my plane a few years back was named Max Power
I bet he got it from the hair dryer.
My japanese pilot was named Toga.
Did you arrive in record time?
But backwards?
If my pilots name was Max Power we could be flying upside down and I’d still trust him.
I didn’t know that reference but this makes is so much better!
There is a AFL player called Patrick Dangerfield. Great player too.
I used to work in a call center and had a notably irate customer named Mrs. Bitschy. I tried pronouncing it like “Beeshy”, and she immediately snapped “It’s Bitchy! Got a problem with that!?” Oof.
