The Newton is named in honour of Sir Isaac newton.
Meter comes from the word French word "metre" - to measure.
Newton meter can mean either:
a/ A meter to measure Newtons, i.e. Force.
b/ A measurement of torque (like foot pound) meaning a force of 1 newton applied at a distance of 1 meter from the pivot.
The situation is slightly simpler in British English than US English where meter and metre are used to distinguish the 2 meanings.

How many newtons in one Mega Newton?
The question does not make sense. The newton and newton meter are different units, so: for a force of 120 newton meters, you can have a 10 newtons over 12 meters, 5 newtons over 24 meters, 0.5 newtons over 240 meters, 50 newtons over 2.4 meters, and so on.
How can you convert newton meters to ft-lbs?
Just multiply. 1 Newton meter = 0.737562149 foot pounds. So number of foot pounds = number of Newton meters * .737562149
