Also a good stripper name
Stormy Daniels
Haha, definitly one of the better aptronyms.
For the curious and lazy.
Aptronym
a person's name that is regarded as amusingly appropriate to their occupation
Of course there's a word for that...
Margaret Court and Usain Bolt are the first two that come to mind for me.
I like the "inaptonym" section on the Wikipedia page about them. Mr Bowler played cricket but was, in fact, a batsman. (For the Americans, imagine a "Mr Pitcher" who played baseball, but was a specialist batter and not, in fact, a pitcher.)
Haha, I just looked a this list a couple of months ago (which is why I knew it had a name).
But I forgot about "Rob Banks, British police officer". Brilliant.
And I remember that "Don Black, white supremacist" also cracked me up, last time.
It really amused me to know there is an American football player named Jake Butt who played a position called "tight end". Glad to see he's made the list.
Edit: Wow, reading through that list....Someone out there really went and named their child "Marijuana Pepsi". And her siblings and parents all have normal names...
Sara Blizzard: Finally, a worthy opponent!
Now we need Tommy Tornado to complete a set!
“Majestic storm reporting good weather”
That would be confusing as hell at a glance.
Link for the lazy. Apparently her real name. https://www.4029tv.com/news-team/3cab7664-dc9b-4ce1-b613-907b3f2bc1ab
Nominative Determinism strikes again!
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominative_determinism
Nominative determinism is the hypothesis that people tend to gravitate towards areas of work that fit their names. The term was first used in the magazine New Scientist in 1994, after the magazine's humorous "Feedback" column noted several studies carried out by researchers with remarkably fitting surnames. These included a book on polar explorations by Daniel Snowman[1] and an article on urology by researchers named Splatt and Weedon.
The most well known meteorologist in Finland is named Pekka Pouta which roughly translates to Peter Fair-Weather
Did she change her name to that?? Because what the heck lol
I will take my forecasts from Ari Sarsalari, thank you.
