Some folks live on through their deeds. Some through their words. Some because their names become words. This quiz focuses upon the latter group. If you’re ready to take an Alex Tre(be)k (okay, that one will never catch on) through some eponymous folks, grab your Bowie knife, put on your Mae West, hit “Start Quiz,” and dive in. p.s. If you are despairing because you don’t happen to have a copy of Richard Trahair’s “From Aristotelian to Reaganomics” at hand, be at ease. I did not consult the book in writing this quiz, but just thought the cover presented a terrific illustration of the enduring power of eponyms through the centuries.

Great fun! Are there enough good eponymous terms for a sequel?
