Does this kid have any hope of ever being a Notre Dame or Southern Cal fan? Sometimes our names define us:
I once knew a receptionist in the Case Western Reserve School of LIbrary Science, who answered the phone, "Good morning. School of Library Science. Rita Book."
Case also had a veterinarian in its Medical School named Aaron Leash.
Turns out that the research on this phenomenon is mixed. There is no scientific consensus on whether or not a person's name predisposes her/him for a particular profession... sports affiliation... or whatever.
