I looked today in a few of the usual places, but didn’t find anything conclusive or even interesting; I’d say the printer was there first. Naming a street after an activity is very common.

It’s basically “good design”, what @anrchivist.bsky.social shows here is a part chapter opener with a thoughtful ornament and good number placement. Perhaps seen less now because they take a lot of page real estate so add to the cost of production.
