Vulcan
Roman flame god
Vulcan refers to a member of a fictional alien species in the Star Trek universe, characterized by pointed ears, suppressed emotions, and rigorous logic.
The Vulcan nerve pinch and Vulcan salute have entered popular culture.
Calling someone a Vulcan suggests they're coldly rational or unemotional: Don't be such a Vulcan about it. (Lowercase vulcan appears in vulcanize, from the Roman god.)
