Who do you date? A dude name John Smith. tbh I'm glad I don't know much about my therapist. It's her life, not mine, I'm there to work on mine, why do I need to know her info.

I'm not speaking for OP, but in my opinion, the curiosity exists because it's a much more personal relationship than what I have with my GP or my dermatologist. I told my therapist last week that if he ever wanted to hurt me, I've given him all the ammunition he needs to destroy me. It's a vulnerable position when they know all your secret hurts and fears. I think it's only natural to be curious about their personal life in return.
