So much hostility

Yes, indeed!

Spooner was well liked and respected, described as "an albino, small, with a pink face, poor eyesight, and a head too large for his body". It was said that "his reputation was that of a genial, kindly, hospitable man."

Oh! I'd heard of spoonerisms, never knew the origin, so thanks! Liking the idea of naming some of my fish after real people...
