Benjamin Spock

Benjamin Spock was a male Human physician in the 20th century, famous for his views on infant and child care. He was also a noted political activist and pacifist.

Professor Jeremy Grayson, a later peace advocate, considered Doctor Spock a predecessor. When Spock met Grayson while temporally displaced to 2045 Earth, the professor asked if the two were related. Grayson then decided to call Spock "Ben" in the late doctor's honor. 

The EMH aboard the USS Voyager also considered taking the name "Spock" in honor of the famed physician.
