Etymology of the name

Einstein's personal explanation of his name: "My grandfather was a scientist. He wrote a letter to Albert Einstein and even got a reply from him. I've got no idea even though I've read it. My mother was a physics graduate and she teaches Physics in a school. So I am Einstein. Napoleon is my father's name." Einstein also said, "We don't believe in God. In our family, we're rationalists. Other people are named Krishna and Ram after Gods, so we were named Einstein and Napoleon after great people."
