Naming a company for a founder is common

  Walmart certainly comes to mind.

    And Taco Bell
    • rumblestrut 4y ago
      I didn't know that Bell was the founder's name. Thanks for that tidbit!
      • elliottkember 4y ago
        Welcome. It’s one of my favourites!

  If you're Michael Scott Paper Company.

    Or Disney or Ford or McDonald's or Goldman Sachs or 1000s of others. Even in pharmacy, Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer and many others are named after founders.

      Cuban isn’t a founder. He just paid to have his name associated with the company (or rather, the company gave him an ownership stake to use his name).

  He wasn’t one of the original founders, he was an early investor.

  Yeah it just dawned on me that the first name was added because "Cuban Drugs" probably doesn't sound too nice, ha.
