There may have been. Some theorise that Dr. Pepper refers to Dr. Pepper of Christianburg, Virginia, whose daughter the inventor of the drink loved. You can read more about the theory at http://www.pipeline.com/~chrisf/dpfaq.html#q1.3

The "official" word at http://www.drpeppermuseum.com/dr-pepper-facts.html#history states that there are many versions of the story of this drink's naming.

Accually There was, Back in the 1980's in a small town in Pinnsilvania, there was a soda parlor, where the soda jerk there was sweet on the managers daughter, but her father wouldn't hear of it, so he banished him from his work place and he moved to Texas. There he found another soda jerk job, and there the soda jerk mad a mock soda called "Dr. Pepper" named after the old mean boss he had, now it's no longer a moc soda any more (i kno my soda :D)

The inventor of Dr. Pepper was dating a young girl. He wanted to get on the good side her Father, so he named his drink after him, Dr. Pepper. And that's the truth.
