I understand where you’re coming from, as far as names and missed expectations. We have a Grace who is less than coordinated, a Drew who eschews art, a Will who has trouble with his responsibilities, and a Lucky who has liver and heart diseases that cost us big $ at the vet.
When I saw you commented I was so hoping to find out that you were a secret “Love Island” fan, but should have known better. I also only just learned the term “nominative determinism” after publishing this but I think you’ve got some inverse nominative determinism happening in your house!

Sadly, no “Love Island” for me. I’m permanently turned off of reality shows, given the worst one we’re living through at the moment.
And I think you’re exactly right about the inverse nominative determinism.
