When people end up in jobs which are connected with their name, it is known as Nominative Determinism. (e.g. Thomas Crapper, ARSENe Venger, Usain Bolt).

My favourite is an academic paper on incontinence, published in the British Journal of Urology. The authors were a J.W. Splatt and a D. Weedon.

In other news, I thought it was possible to change your username?

I was going to change my name to Cardinal Sin but the powers-that-be don't want to know.
