Yes.
Why is that so weird?

 

Me and other chemistry fans

 

I like chemistry! I'm just a noob. Enlighten me?

 

I can try.

Anyways, it's a cyclic molecule, a benzene ring.
Ortho/para/meta describes the position of substituents, because it's easier than using numbers (ortho - 1,2, para - 1,4, meta - 1,3).

So if the substituents in these case are DOC, then the full name of the first molecule would be:

1,2-diDOCylbenzene or Ortho-diDOCylbenzene (because there are two DOC substituents)

You can figure out the other two names.

It's a play on words, I guess.
OrthoDOCS/Orthodox
ParaDOCS/Paradox
MetaDOCS/Meta physicians lol

It's a lil funny.

Also, bleh, English...I apologize if I made any nomenclature mistakes.
And if I underestimated your chemistry knowledge, and explained the simple things as well without it being necessary.
