Not that I know of directly, but there is a phenomenon where the ultra-rich "purchase" (but rarely take possession of) items in an exclusive catalog and the item's ownership/heritage is seen as a status symbol. The first thing that comes to mind is the Codex Leicester, which is now owned by Bill Gates and people were expecting him to rename it "Codex Gates" but he didn't. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codex_Leicester https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codex_Leicester
