Nominative determinism is the hypothesis that people tend to gravitate towards areas of work that fit their names. The term was first used in the magazine New Scientist in 1994, after the magazine's humorous "Feedback" column noted several studies carried out by researchers with remarkably fitting surnames. These included a book on polar explorations by Daniel Snowman and an article on urology by researchers named Splatt and Weedon. These and other examples led to light-hearted speculation that some sort of psychological effect was at work.

Christopher Coke and his father Lester Coke, also a drug lord
What is your name? Christopher Coke.
What do you do? Sell coke.
Well that's the perfect name for that profession. Does everyone call you Chris Cocaine? Chrissy Cokes? No, Dudus.
Dudus? Like poops? Yup.
Oh man, i read it more like "dude - us," almost as though it sounds like a roman latinized version of Dude. Doodoos is so much funnier.
Also Lester Coke. Reminded me of Lester from GTA5.
Christopher Coke, cocaine trafficker
Are we sure this isn't just Roger from American Dad?
If I were them I'd have called myself Lord Coke or something like that.
No no, Mister Coke is my father.
Exact same mindspace as successful corporate CEOs just picked the wrong industry.
