people with ridiculously appropriate names
 
Reading an article in the newspaper today, I came across "Julia R. Heiman, director of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender and Reproduction." This reminds me of Karen Horeny, proponent of Freudian psychoanalysis.

Anyway, I know there are lots of other people with names that match their occupations like this, but I can't think of them ATM.

Despite urban legend, Crapper did not invent the flush toilet (the myth being helped by the surname). However, Crapper put in effort to popularise it and did come up with some related inventions.

Fine, nitpick away. A guy named Crapper was heavily involved with toilets and their popularization. Is that not enough?
