What other notable figures have "coincidental" names related to their notoriety?

Asked by kevbo (25672points) December 21st, 2009

Not pseudonyms or stage names (and certainly not porn names!)

Names like:
Tiger Woods – golf
Neel Kashkari (cash carry) – US bank bailout architect
Bernie Madoff (made off) – ponzi schemer
Michael Pollan (pollen) – food/ecology writer (assuming that’s not a pseudonym)

Did you hear Tiger Woods is changing his name?

Soon he’ll be known as Cheetah Woods.

Oh… I suppose we’ll also have to eliminate names from days of yore (when your surname was your occupation or something).
