Gutzon Borglum

Is this even a real name

Sounds like a character from Hitchhikers Guide. Hell it could even be a B-plot: Slartibartfast is trying to stop Gutzon Borglum from carving Zaphod Beeblebrox into a mountain he created.

Wow, I didn't even notice how made-up that sounds.

John Gutzon de la Mothe Borglum.

His father, Jens Møller Haugaard Børglum (1839–1909), came from the village of Børglum in northwestern Denmark.

It's an anagram for his true identity, Nutzog Murbolg.
