[George Athas <George.Athas AT moore.edu.au>]

Thanks for your thoughts, David. If you reread my post you'll see that what I 
was objecting to was not that people did things that matched their name, but 
that people HAD to have a name that matched what they did. The former is a 
possibility. The latter is an absurdity.

You've offered some interesting etymologies for the names there. I'll have to 
think more on them.
