Colby is named after a town in Wisconsin, which was named after a railroad station which was named after Charles Colby. So in a round about way sort of yes.
Monterey Jack was named after a town in California and the guy who sold the cheese, David Jacks, so half yes. I’m not entirely sure the origins of Monterey, CA’s name so it could be like a three quarters yes.
Aren’t those cheeses named for people, and not the other way around?
