# Not always.
Sometimes the thinking goes:

"I've spent 3 years in the lab, grinding up insects and running electricity through meaty jellies, so I'm damn well going to call this gene 'Sonic The Hedgehog' even though it has nothing to do with Sonic.

# This is true. The naming of things is very important.
For example, there is a program called the "Basic Local Alignment Search Tool" (that does local alignments of sequences) - naturally called "BLAST".

This means you can say "let's BLAST that sequence" and sound very active. Other programs called, say, "LETHARGIC" don't do so well.

100% true.
