Who thought to name it Epstein-Barr?
Probably Doctors Epstein and Barr.
Dr Epstein went on to invent the Epstein drive in the early 23rd century.
Anthony Epstein and Yvonne Barr, more specifically
It’s been called that since the 60s. Epstein is also just a last name.
The owner of the pub.
Congrats you win the internet today!
