    Nope it is the other way around Booker T was named after Booker T Washington.

  • Booker T Washington was born in The 19th Century. Former WCW World Heavyweight Champion Booker T was born in the 20th Century, do the math?

    Booker is his real name so it most likely is the other way around.

    The first was born over 100 years prior to the second one coming into the world. Can you point to any instance where someone or something was named for a person or thing that wouldn't come into existence for another century? We already have enough trolls here who are continually asking ridiculous questions, we don't need to add ones like this that are simply too imbecilic to be even remotely entertaining or humorous. Find something else to do with your time, trolling isn't for you and you don't have the intelligence to make it worthwhile.
