[Opinions] not sure I believe this ...
It's just a good thing their favorite sports isn't basketball.
Hockey is also slang for manure. As in horse hockey.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!

It makes them look like they don't actually know anything about hockey.A historian wouldn't name their kid "History". A cinephile wouldn't name their kid "Movie". They'd pick something with more nuance and meaning. Picking "HOCKEY" makes it sound like they just landed on earth.

True. I have a cousin who was named after a golfer; it's dull to think about her being named Golf instead - no story there.
