Okay but why would they become criminals like my bro as an uncommon name and i dont see him running around and killing ppl or robbing banks for some reason i dont think that is true

Well that s*cks.

Ted Bundy's real name was Theodore Robert Bundy, so I can see why he was a killer.
But then Charles Manson? His name wasn't very uncommon. So this theory has some kinks.

Lmao, it just says it's more likely. Not that it's for certain peoples. But I dunno...I guess being ridiculed and humiliated all your life will make you snap and hurt someone eventually o-o?
