"We write our names thousands of times throughout our lives," science reporter Vanessa Hill explains in the video. "The more we are merely exposed to something, like those letters, the more we like them."

It seems we tend to pick cities whose names sound like our own. Phils, for example, often gravitate to Philadelphia. Virginias are overrepresented in Virginia Beach.

The same works for our occupations, according to the video. The ranks of dentists, for example, include more Dennises and Denises than you might expect.
视频指出,这一现象同样适用于我们的职业。举例说,牙医行业中就有很多叫丹尼斯和丹妮丝的人,多得远超你的想象。
