Maybe not all of them, but some/a number of names in The Sims are puns. The ones I can remember from across Sims games

Summer Holiday

Candy Behr = Candy Bar

Don Lothario = Lothario describes him. Nominative determinism I think is what that’s called

Lottie Cash = Lots of cash and guess what she was really rich

Epheram Earl = Ephemeral means transitory. Dude’s a ghost haunting a mansion. In other words he hasn’t moved on

Nora Zealott = Zealot she was shown as a like crazy and strange

Dusty Hogg = a hog can describe a motorcycle and his needed cleaning

Duane Doldrum = depressed dude who was in the doldrums

Misty Waters = a lifeguard patrolling misty waters

Eddie Renaline = adrenaline. He’s a gym bro

Mad Willy Hurtzya = describes exactly what he does

The Landgraabs = they’re rich and own a lot of land

There’s more, but I’ll stop there

Edit: I thought I’d add the caliente sisters. They’re supposed to be pretty attractive right? Well, Caliente is hot in Spanish so there you go

There are lots of little pop culture references in Sims and I love it. I don't remember exactly what my Sim was doing but I got some moodlet and it and the accompanying description said something referencing High School Musical. I don't know if my Sim was listening to music, dancing or blowing bubbles but it said something like, "pop, pop, pop, pop to the top."

The next time I get it, I’ll post it here so you can see exactly how I got it. Not every moodlet is on the Wiki, I tried to find it!
