A small funny tidbit from the realm of Biology/Chemistry:
In 1975, the scientist Edwin Southern developed a method to separate DNA fragments in a gel, then transfer it to a membrane, which makes it possible to label it according to their sequence. The method was named 'Southern blot' to honour its creator.
Later, similar methods were made for RNA and Protein. And these were aptly named 'Northern blot' and 'Western blot'
And I find that beautiful.

The Concept, Processes, and Applications of Western Blotting
Western blot is an indispensable technique in modern biomedical research laboratories, as well as in laboratories doing research in other areas. It is an analytical technique used mainly in molecular biology and immunogenetics where antibodies are used to detect their antigen specifically.
Learn more about Western blotting, its principle of work, processes, advantages, applications, and more.
