The syndrome was described as early as 1870, but it attained its eponymic designation after Eagle categorized the syndrome into two distinct types--the classic type and the carotid artery type--in 1937. Dodd discounts a number of obvious eponymic subjects (though he rightly disdains the term eponym as too earnest): no cities and countries named after famous people, for example (thus no Wellington, no Washington); and no objects named after fictional characters (sadly depriving us of Dodd on the trilby, from George du Maurier's novel).
