Quick version: Nobody knows because the toilet has been around since 30,000 BC. Queen Elizabeth I granted a patent for the AJAX toilet to Sir John Harington in 1596, but the name "Crapper" which we use for certain functions is actually a name of a plumber. Thomas Crapper was a shrewd businessman who advertised his porcelain products so well that his name became synonimous with the toilet. He did invent several improvements to the toilet, but did not invent the modern toilet. As a side note, the history of the word "crap" is fascinating in itself. Ultimately it comes from the word Latin word crappa meaning "chaff".
