18 times people’s names hilariously matched their professions

There’s a theory that someone’s name can have a great influence on what job they eventually do, for instance someone called Mr. Baker could end up making bread, Miss Brewer could be drawn to producing beer and Mr Dick could, in time, become a traffic warden. The theory is known as “nominative determinism”.

Oddly enough, the theory holds some water, as these 18 people show.

1. The firefighter

2. The neurologist

3. The lawyer

4. The water expert

5. The charity worker

6. The cashier

7. The doctor

8. The librarian

9. The gastroenterologist
