NASA's Johnson Space Center (named for President Lyndon B. Johnson, who was also Senator from Texas and instrumental in getting it built there) is NASA's center in Houston for manned flight missions/control, and astronaut training.
Johnson was personally responsible for the existence of the center. The facility came into being through legislation originated by Johnson in 1958. In carrying forth with Kennedy's goal to land on the moon, he created a lot of benefit for NASA, both at Cape Canaveral and at the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston. It was originally named the Manned Spacecraft Center, but was renamed in 1973, a few months after Johnson died.
The Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, Texas, has not been the launch site for any moon missions. Instead, it served as the control center for the Apollo program, overseeing missions that launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Notably, Apollo missions, including the first moon landing in 1969, were managed from JSC, but the launches themselves occurred elsewhere.
NASA Mission Control for space vehicles is located in Houston, Texas, at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center.
The Kennedy Space Center was originally named Launch Operations Center. It was given the name Kennedy Space Center by Lyndon Johnson's executive order on November 19, 1963. It became official on December 20th, 1963.
