Coincidence or a real pattern? The last syllable of each of the famous people who died this week has been "ay". Random or not?

I M Pei (ends with ‘ay’ sound)

Doris Day (ends with ‘ay’ sound)

Tim Conway (ends with ‘ay’ sound)

Pure coincidence? Or is something targeting these people?

Seems the shorter the name, the longer the life.
