What's in a name? Have you ever encountered someone who told you their name, but it doesn't exactly match their face or personality?

There are times when you really have to do a double take and think to yourself, "This guy does not look like a Kyle at all," or "This woman would've been better off with a name like Susan instead of Mary." Sometimes, you would also encounter or see people on the news that seems like they were truly born to live up to their name—like Usain Bolt, who literally holds the title "The Fastest Man On The Planet."

Fun fact: we call these names aptronyms. Other examples include Scott Speed (a race car driver), Sara Blizzard (a weather presenter), William Wordsworth (a poet), Chris Moneymaker (a poker player)—and brace yourself for this one: Thomas Crapper, an English plumber. Cool, right?

But that being said, there are also names that you would immediately put a face or a personality on as soon as you heard them, even if you haven't even met that certain someone yet. We all know what goes into our minds as soon as we hear the name "Karen" or "Joe" and we get ultimately satisfied when the picture we made in our heads matches the person when we finally meet them.

That being said, there are also names that make us think they belong to an annoying person—as these Redditors believed them to be. A certain u/partyknight as the question, "What is a name that sounds like it's given to a very annoying person?" on r/AskReddit, and sure enough, the people delivered.
