International ice hockey now uses the trapezoid.

** Martin Brodeur himself also had a rule named after him. The standard was for goalies to cover the goal when the puck was behind the goal line, and a goalie playing the puck was risking losing control of the situation fast and allowing an easy goal. But Brodeur would not only get out and play the puck behind the goal line, he was exceptionally talented at doing so; opposing players complained that it was like his team had an extra defenseman, because their attempts to move the puck down the ice were hampered by Brodeur's willingness to leave the crease and send it back. Partway through his career and as a result of the 2004 lockout, the NHL instituted "the Brodeur rule", marking a trapezoid behind the net, which was the only place goaltenders were legally permitted to play the puck behind the line and which limited a roaming goalie's ability to clear the puck rather than just send it to the corner for the skaters to fight over. The rule had very minimal effect outside of Brodeur (who was arguably a once-a-generation talent and has been retired for years), and international rules do not include the trapezoid.

Ohtani Rule: Not a rule-breaker in the sense of anything illegal, but rather a rule-breaker as someone the rules never envisioned.

* In Figure Skating, the "Zagitova Rule" limits how many jumps in the second half of a program provide bonus points. Named after Alina Zagitova, who dominated the 2017–18 season with a pair of programs that back-loaded all of her jumps, allowing her to dominate the scoring despite the imbalance of her style.

** The current MLB rule that allows teams to list their starting pitcher as the designated hitter, and allows said player to remain in the game as DH after leaving the pitching role, is known to all but MLB suits as the "Ohtani rule". This rule was an obvious reaction to Shohei Ohtani, the first MLB player to perform at superstar level as both a pitcher and hitter since Creator/BabeRuth a century earlier. It was introduced for the 2021 All-Star Game, in which Ohtani had been voted in by fans as the American League's starting DH and was later chosen by managers as the starting pitcher. The rule became a permanent part of MLB in 2022.

* Since legal cases are named after their plaintiffs and defendants, any ruling that sets a procedural precedent is this. For example, ''Illinois v. Allen'' establishes that a defendant can be removed from the courtroom if they are repeatedly disruptive. The "Allen" is William Allen, a robbery suspect who [[AFoolForAClient represented himself at trial]] and was removed from the courtroom for disruption on two occasions. After his conviction, he appealed on the basis that being removed from the courtroom was unconstitutional under the sixth amendment, and this case went to the Supreme Court who solidified the ''Illinois v. Allen'' precedent.
