If only he was William Rain
I recently learned on the NPR show “A Way With Words” that there is a term for someone whose name matches their profession: Aprtonym or Aptonym. So I was prepared to be impressed by an interview this morning with the Director of the California Water Resources Department who was discussing the inevitable rationing that will take place this summer due to the on-going drought. His name? Les Snow. Though to be fair he probably always goes by Lester.
