NPC by any other name

Sometimes you get a name and bang you instantly have an NPC-. For example, my senior year of high school someone said to me, "fill up the jug" but I heard "Phillip the Jug" and bang I had a hard drinking dwarf NPC who travelled with a mule lugging a small keg and he always had a jug in hand an look out you if he was forced to smash his jug over your head.
