      It has nothing to do with baking in that instance. Neither Walter Baker nor his father James Baker had any sort of culinary background.
      Sure, if you trace their family lineage back one or two hundred years their ancestor might've gotten the surname due to being a baker by profession, but that has nothing to do with the naming of the chocolate any more than it would if their last name was Carpenter. It's not like the baking profession had been passed down through the generations all the way to James, it simply happened to be his name.

      The Ultramarines may be Ultra powerful versions of regular marines, but they are named after Ultramar, the place they come from.
      The "Iron Hands" Space Marine chapter might have hands of iron, but they are actually named after "Ferrus Manus", wich his name translates to "Hand of Iron", and while he might have hands made of metal, his name comes from how he governed his world with an "iron fist".
