imagine being an obscure 19th century cartographer and mid-ranking colonial public servant and having the highest mountain in the world named after you and becoming a household name forever

Most english speakers probably felt the same even if no one publicly comes out and talks about it. It's borderline "sim glitch" stuff imo.

If his name had been Higgenbotham or something they probably wouldn't have named it after him. Or it would have been renamed later.

Yea its funny but that guy ran the coffee shop on the peak of the Mountain for decades before it became popular to ascend. He deserves it imo.
