It is named after a man whose name really was Johns Hopkins. "Johns" was a family name, coming from the surname of one of his ancestors. "Hopkins" (with an s) is a common English surname. In 1873 he (Johns Hopkins) left 8 million dollars for the foundation of the school. That is still a lot of money by today's standards. It must have seemed like all the money in the world back then. When you have that kind of money, you can have an eccentric name.
