At school we had an English teacher called Mr Shakespeare, a music teacher called Mrs Singer and a history teacher who had a severe turn in one of his eyes so you never knew if is was shouting at you or someone else. His name was B D Jones (no, honestly)...

Is it nominative determinism or merely an aptonym?

A Kiwi mate told me we was in school with a guy who became a plumber, Dwayne Pipe I have looked on line for proof of this but cant find any 🙁 I so wanted it to be true, if anyone is in Wanganui and can verify it that would make my day.

We had an applicant for a job here whose initials were DI. Personally I'd have had to be a policeman. "Constable DI Cunningham"

One of the GPs at our local practice is Doc Savage. Quite pale, going against that there determinism, I guess.

So what happens to all the kids/people that are named 'Jesus' or 'Mohammed'? Not to many job opportunities for them anymore?

That, and I see the name 'Adolf' has really declined? (unless your parents are redneck white supremacists)
