A new analysis from app maker Verdant Labs found the six most unique names in 37 different professions. These are the names that are more common in that line of work than in others.

应用软件制造商Verdant Labs最近的一项分析发现，37种不同职业各有六个独特的名字，这六个名字在某一职业中出现的频率要远高于其他的名字。

Here's Verdant Labs' chart showing the six most disproportionately common names in each profession:

下面是Verdant Labs的图表，展示了各个职业中出现频率最高的六个名字。

In a blog post, developer Mark Edmond explained more about the methodology: 在一篇博文中，软件开发者马克·爱蒙德对这个原则进行了详细解释：

Take Elvis, for example. There aren't all that many Elvises out there, but a particularly high percentage of them are musicians. As a result, Elvis ranks high among musician names. Elvis isn't the most common name among musicians -- that's likely to be John or some other very popular name. What's interesting is that it's way more common among musicians than you might expect, given how rare it is. In other words, it's common in that profession relative to its overall frequency.

以Elvis为例。叫Elvis的人并不多，但是他们当中音乐家特别多。因此，Elvis在音乐家名字中排名靠前。Elvis并非最常见的音乐家名字，可能最常见的还是John等其他流行的名字。有趣的是，考虑到Elvis这个名字本来就不常见，它在音乐家中的常见程度也就可以算是很高了。换句话说，这个名字出现在音乐家中的几率要高于它出现的整体几率。

Some of the findings won't be too surprising: Police officers, race car drivers, golfers and guitarists are more likely to be men. Social workers, librarians and graphic designers tend to be women.

有些发现在情理之中：警官、赛车手、高尔夫球手和吉他手中男性更多。社工、图书管理员、平面设计师里女性更多。
