[Spoiler] Lumon CEO Names
Sorry if this is old news, but I couldn't find any other post or comment about some of it.
I was rewatching the show and noticed some things about the Lumon CEO names. Hard to tell if it's intentional or apophenia, but possibly interesting still?
The Lumon CEOs
Kier, Ambrose, Myrtle, Baird, Gerhardt, Phillip, Leonora, Jame
If you take the second letter of their names, you get the letters: I-M-Y-A-E-H-E-A
If you take the last letter of their names, you get: R-E-E-D-T-P-A-E
These are anagrams for 'YEA, I AM HE' and 'REPEATED.'
It also explains some really weird stuff with the names like why Gerhardt ends with a 'T' or why Jame is missing an 's' at the end (severed? :P).
There's some other stuff, like Imogen is a character in a Shakespeare play Cymbeline where the character disguises herself as a young boy, Fidele. Lenore is a character in a Beethoven opera who disguises herself as a young man named Fidelio in order to infiltrate a prison and save her husband. Which, it's interesting enough that two women in the Eagan family could be references to fictional characters that disguise themselves as men, let alone with approximately the same name, and infiltrating a prison to save your husband is a little on-the-nose for the plot.
And maybe the smallest one but kinda on-the-nose as well, Ambrose and Myrtle. Ambrosia is commonly depicted as conferring immortality, and Myrtle is the greek plant of Venus that is associated with immortality. The episode where you are introduced to these characters is called In Perpetuity.
I know this is a common suspicion amongst fans of the show, but I'd venture a guess that 'revolving' is just Kier Eagan stepping through all his successors.
