John Wick, James Bond, Jack Reacher: Why do all action heroes have J names?

• jjgreen 4y ago
  Because those with J names are just cool and good-looking.

  No mention to Ethan Hunt as a great outlier? Also, you forgot Johnny English!

  Bullitt Shaft RoboCop Mad Max Rambo Bride (Kill Bill) Sarah Connor Batman / Bruce Wayne Terminator Seems like the article cherrypicked. Those three examples may be the only ones with J names. Hey! James and John were in the top 3 most popular mens' names in the last century. This may just be a heatmap issue (data resembles underlying statistics).

    Jandamarra starts with a J ... ( but I concede other action heros may have names elsewhere in the alphabet )
