We have come across people whose name fits their job such as Mr Forest the tree surgeon. Also a job title can sound quite funny for the business involved - e.g. calling a tree surgeon and asking for the branch manager.

I had to have an emergency pericardiocentesis in the early 2000s (in the USA) - the ER called down a pericardial specialist who performed the pericardiocentesis and his name was Dr Perrie. Nearly 20 years on that still makes me giggle a little.

How about Dr Shatwell the gastro-enterologist? I think his career path was set from birth.
