Kantian, Stirnerian, Schopenhauerian, nuxiyian
pantagruelian
Wouldn't oxonian be preferred to oxfordian? Narcissistic? Franciscan? carmelite? Alexandrine? chaotic? Saturnine? Promethean? heraclitean? august? cimmerian?
namby-pamby, Shavian, mercurial, hermetic
stentorian would fit here. And if deities are people, then you've got jovial, venereal, martial, apollonian, vestal, plutonian, cereal, etc. And then there are lots from the Bible: adamic, mosaic, johannine, pauline, simoniac, etc., not to mention christian. I apologize if you have already listed some of these.
herculean, gargantuan, protean, quixotic, titanic (sometimes)
bowdlerized, galvanized, macadamized, pasteurized?
Far out list. Maybe hip, or a few years earlier, simian, paleolithic or neolithic?
Soylent adjectives are people!!!
Wow, this is a neat list! Found it quite by accident. Might I humbly suggest Jacobean?
Thatcherite
That was William Backus, the notorious myope who was always advising people to 'back off' so he could see them properly?
Or the fellow in my class who asked "who is the 'back off' method named after?"
The temptation to compose bogus retronyms and etymologies is, of course, irresistible. For instance, quater, the hamiltonian professor of mathematics after whom quaternions are named. Or burl ives, a popular entertainer of the 20th century who suffered from a rare disorder which caused him occasionally to begin to disrobe on stage, from which the term burlesque is derived. Refer also to ecdysias, mentioned by galen as having the same disorder. and so on.
my favorite, shavian. Also, jeffersonian. Jacob yields several variations, each with a slightly different nuance - jacobin, jacobian, jacobean, jacobite.
chauvinist
Interesting idea for a list.
Like "grimalkin"
There's a name for these: eponymous.
Manichaean
