Default Another OT: Letter T

Yes i do have a lot of side thoughts today... what it is with letter T? it is all too often seen in creations of people. in my case, i thought its because im used to my family name and that begins with T - for example: my longest-held nickname was Trouble; my SW nickname is Thachi; my RP empires were TechnoLogic and Taera. There is more to it, but recently i noticed that T is also very very common elsewhere - for example more races have their name begin with T than any other letter, so it seems. I downloaded three races yesterday, two of them had T in their name. What is it about the letter? a rare name begins with B, C, L, I, P or many more letters, but T exists in almost any game, almost any book, almost ANYWHERE!
