I recently came across the name 'Scrooge' and I'm wondering if it's a real entity or just a made-up name. I've searched online but haven't found any clear answers. Can someone please confirm if Scrooge is real or not?

Interestingly, John Elwes was originally named John Meggot. The reason for his name change is not widely known, but it added a layer of mystique to his life.

During his lifetime, Elwes was known for his miserly nature and tight grip on his wealth. These traits were eerily similar to those exhibited by Scrooge in the novel.
