Borhium- Neils Bohr
Curium- Pierre and Marie Curie
Einsteiniun- Albert Einstein
Fermium- Enrico Fermi
Gallium- although named after Gallia (Latin for France), the discoverer of the metal, Lecoq de Boisbauran, subtly attached an association with his name. Lecoq (rooster) in Latin is gallus.
Lawrencium- Ernest Lawrence
Meitnerium- Lise Meitner
Mendelevium- Dmitri Mendeleev
Nobelium- Alfred Nobel
Roentgenium- Wilhelm Roentgen
Rutherfordium- Ernest Rutherford
Seaborgium- Glenn T. Seaborg
-Fermium : it was named after nuclear physicist Enrico Fermi -Einsteinium: it was named after Albert Einstein -Mendelevium: it was named after Dimitri Mendeleev :-) :p <3
einsteinium (atomic number 99) was the element named after the scientist that created e=mc2 or Albert Einstein.
The element fermium (element 100) was named after the Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi. Fermi made significant contributions to nuclear physics and was instrumental in the development of the atomic bomb.
Because Albert Einstein was a very known physicist, a Nobel Prize laureate.
The synthetic element created in 1955 that bears his name is einsteinium, named after physicist Albert Einstein.
Einsteinium. It is element 99 and has an atomic weight of 252.
The element Meitnerium (Mt) is named after Lise Meitner, an Austrian physicist who worked in Berlin, Germany. The element was named in recognition of her contributions to the field of nuclear physics.
That would be Niels Bohr.
Because Albert Einstein was a very known physicist, a Nobel Prize laureate.
Einsteinium
No element was named for an American president. Rutherfordium has the name of Rutherford Hayes but was named for the physicist Ernest Rutherford.
Einsteinium, 99Es and Curium, 96Cu are some examples.

Einsteinium wasn't named after a what, but a who. This element was named in honor of Albert Einstein.
