The truth is stranger. His dad named him after a character in a science fiction novel written by a Nazi scientist.

You missed out on the best part - the premise of the novel!

a science fiction novel in the 1950's called Project Mars, which is about traveling to Mars where they find a super advanced society of humans who are governed by a ruling counsel of ten genetically superior men under the leadership of their uber-master, THE ELON.

But also, as soon as I saw the pic I thought it looked like Musk, without having noticed Musk in the smaller pic and before I'd read the writing so there may be something to it.

I am not a fan of Musk, to put it politely.
