Dr Richard “Dick” Chopp is (was?) a urologist specializing in vasectomies.
I read about an OB/GYN named Dr. Fingerhood.
I mean, if the universe is gonna hand you that joke on a silver platter…
I know a Dr. Payne who is a dentist and a Dr. Kokane who studies addiction using cocaine.
Dr. Kokane
Bro literally planned his entire life around a pun
One of my relatives said she knew a gynecologist named Dr. Hole.
There are quite a few people with the last name Butts. Wonder how many of them are proctologists.
Kind of a stretch - gastroenterology covers the whole digestive system from the esophagus down. A proctologist is a “butt doctor”.
Shoutout to Dr Killam, family loves that guy
Meanwhile someone made the CHOICE to name the fictional Doctor Killdare.
The opposite of nominative determinism?
Determinative nominism
The great thing about philosophy is that by flipping those two words to make an opposite, the actual perspective of determinative nomin(al)ism would imply that nominal determinism is always happening with everything and defining reality. Rather than just being a thing that occurs sometimes. So the opposite is actually like the same thing but infinitely moreso
Big if true
Acquired?
Well, if she’d gone into Physics instead of becoming one, maybe the legacy would’ve continued?
Though, NGL, I’m all aboard for Dr. Sleeper. 🤘🏼
FWIW, the surgeons that extracted my wisdom teeth back when were a private practice duo, called Drs. Fear and Hitchcock.
The former was incredibly tall & slim (~7ft!) with Doc Brown hair, while the latter was round-ish, bald, and liked to stand in the periphery.
Their only competition for young adult dentistry, et al? A certain Dr. Gentle, though he was quietly known for being anything but.
The scary ones are those that mask their true nature with misleading presentation. My guys? Led with exactly how things were gonna go. They even had overlarge paisley wallpaper “so your anesthesia cocktail turns them into amoebae”. Legends. 😅
The Doctor Is In
Good name for a British railroad designer too.
