Nobel not being such a great guy is the whole reason for the Nobel prizes. Does something to be called Merchant of death to a person I suppose

Yeah it washed his name clean. People dont associate Merchant of Death with Nobel anymore. The award shouldn't be named after a person.

You could always petition the Nobel foundation to change its name. But a bit audacious to remove the Nobel part from the prize Nobel set up in his last will?

edit: out of interest, what would you call it?
