Just Like the Football Player

As a quick bonus post for this week:

This morning I came across an article about a new biography of Charles Tiebout and the biographer had this comment about his name:
If I could offer but one contribution to his memory, let it be to induce economists to pronounce his name correctly: It is "TEE-bow," the unstressed syllable sounding like the bow of cellos and arrows.
 The more you know.
