The Stanley Cup is named after Lord Stanley, Earl of Grey of Canada. He was a Governor-General of Canada who saw the growing popularity of ice hockey and felt that by donating a trophy he could help further ice hockey's status. It was first called the Dominion Hockey Challenge Cup, but changed in 1909 to the Cup we know today.
