You came up with some genius model and proved it, and after all that work you decided that your name and some greek letter are what people need to think of when they hear about it and not anything about what it is? Fuck you Kronecker!
I believe the usual story is that Kronecker called it a delta function, then someone other than Kronecker decided to call it a Kronecker delta. It would be ridiculously presumptuous otherwise!
