They were not related by blood or by marriage although they did correspond, as they shared in interest in electrical matters and both worked in the field now referred to as physics. Theircorrespondence can be found in the archives of Cambridge University Library.
Lord Kelvin had four brothers: James Thomson, David Thomson, William Thomson Jr., and Robert Thomson.
Before he was made a Lord, he was William Thomson
The unit of temperature, Kelvin, is named after the physicist and engineer William Thomson, also known as Lord Kelvin. Lord Kelvin made significant contributions to the field of thermodynamics and the development of the Kelvin temperature scale.
The Kelvin scale was developed by William Thomson, also known as Lord Kelvin, a Scottish physicist. It is an absolute temperature scale where zero represents the absence of all thermal energy, or absolute zero.
Lord Kelvin, also known as William Thomson, made significant contributions to the fields of physics and engineering. He formulated the first and second laws of thermodynamics and developed the Kelvin temperature scale. His work laid the foundation for modern physics and engineering principles.

The famous scientist and engineer was born William Thomson, and was given the title Lord Kelvin. One of the strange things about British lords is that they can then use their title as if it was a surname- so he would sign himself as Kelvin.

Kelvin invented the Kelvin absolute temperature scale and told us that the atmosphere was 70% nitrogen
