What elements are named after scientist?

Quite a few are. Curium, einsteinium, fermium, mendelevium, nobelium, lawrencium (maybe), rutherfordium, seaborgium, bohrium, meitnerium, roentgenium, and copernicium are all named after scientists. I'm not sure what you consider "famous". It's perhaps excusable not to know who Ernest Lawrence, Glenn Seaborg, and Lise Meitner were (even though two of them won Nobel prizes and the third should have), but anyone with any degree of knowledge of the history of science should recognize the others. Lawrencium is a special case. It was discovered at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, so whether it's "really" named after Lawrence or named after the laboratory itself is kind of an open question. However, the reason the lab was called that was because of Ernest Lawrence, so either directly or indirectly it's named after him. There's also berkelium, which is indirectly named after George Berkeley (it's named after a city that's named after him), who was a philosopher at a time when "philosopher" and "scientist" were regarded as more or less the same thing. (Not-so-incidentally, the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory is associated with the University of California - Berkeley and is now known as the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Guess where berkelium was discovered.)
