An INaptronym?
I found it somewhat amusing that, in the first No advert for Australia's forthcoming "equal marriage" postal opinion poll (not a proper plebiscite as we were were supposed to have), one of the speakers was a doctor named Dr PANSY Lai.
She was certainly telling pansy lies!

Two from another forum. I've not seen any sources so can't vouch for their veracity.
The head of the New Orleans agency in charge of controlling floodwaters is Paul Rainwater.
Indianapolis TV station WTTV has a meteorologist named Brittany Rainey.

I am not sure if this qualifies for this thread, nor do I know if this locally famous and long-established firm of estate agents has been mentioned before (or even if I have mentioned it before) but I think it is worth noticing from time to time. At any rate, it pleases me. www.doolittle-dalley.co.uk

Thanks for that one, LJH. I've passed it on to my paper's real-estate-advertising sales manager for a giggle.

Is Nott not guilty or not?

Boring studies (not quite an aptronym)The first Methodist minister in my life was a Rev. Boorman; I can’t recall if his sermons were interesting or soporific.

The Contessa and I are about to update our Wills. The solicitor we're using is a Mr Crooks.
Do we need a new thread here for Nominative Anti-determinism? (Or should we use another solicitor?)
